I didnt say i was all that displeased...the 06I shoot is devistating with 180gr core-lokts....YesI did harvest both deer....Personally i wont hunt with the core-lokt bullets anymore with my 270just for piece of mind...I really cant see owning an expensive rifle...expensive scope...then trying to shoot the cheapest bulletsI can buy through them...When it comes time to take a shot you only need 1 bullet....so what difference does it make if it costs 50 cents or a dollar fifty? If i had the stuff i would reload everything and not get involved with a factoryammo discussion, but im limited in my rifle hunting and just try to buy better factory ammo even if it is more expensive.
Yes core-lokt bullets do kill thousands of animals each year and do shoot great in alot of rifles....I just wont use em for hunting anymore....my 270 finds 1" groups at 100 with the Hornaday SP 130 and the Federal Fusion 130 and both are just lights out on whitetail.
makes absolutley no differance if your makin 10 cent shots like in the liver.
