Well most forum members are aware, I love my White Rifles and I like shooting big lead. When I saw a small charge, like 65 grains of powder push a 460 grain conical bullet eight inches into very (and I do mean very) solid poplar wood, I was shocked.

As some, my shots here in the woods are close. These big conicals are almost tailor made for me. They plant the animal well, get a pass through, and do impressive things. I have shot a lot of deer with conicals ranging from 300 to 426 grain. Seldom do they walk off.

There is a lot to be said for conical bullets out of a good shooting rifle.
