I have used 150 grain Ballistic Tips in my Rem 30-06. They did o.k. I never recovered any bullets so they must penetrate well. I think they should have caused more internal damage than they did. But they did kill every deer and hog I shot. Hogs fell on the spot, the deer however ran a little ways but I never had any problems following blood trails. In my opinion they seem to be better suited for heavier game than whitetails. But I subscribe to the notion that you can' t beat a well placed shot, no matter the make or the model of the bullet.
Shoot what groups.
Hope this helps!!
