RE: Moving away from Powerbelt bullets; Need recommendations
When using 80 grn or less of powder, I go with a Bullshop or No Excuses conical.
Less then 50 cents each and devastating results from 5 to 150yds plus.
For higher charges, if slightly more recoil can be tolerated ( I never notice recoil when shooting in the field at game),I use the Nosler Partitions.
Again no limitations ( taken deer from 10yds to 170 and have yet to recover a bullet)
and cost the same or probably less then the PB's that seem to require a much narrower set of conditions.
