My sentiments exactly. I have shot truckloads of deer, bear, elk and moose with Hornady Speer, Nosler, Winchester and cast. Partitions, Grand Slams standard cup core and lead, the result is the same. They fall down. Some are insanely accurate, others not so much, but still minute of deer. Whatever floats your boat, I guess. I always used the premiums when hunting in the rocks as there are grizzlies all over the place in there, but for the average hunter, these are just an added expense in an already costly hobby.
