RE: Should I reload for hunting if I’m already getting small groups?
I have seen the internet chat rooms almost destroy the Bullistic Tip. Its ashame too. Fine deer bullet. I have seen people use them on Kudu, and warthogs with 300win mags. Seen it shot thru caribou at 200 yards. Saw them kill moose with ease from a 300RUM. With no problems. I have shot dozens of deer with them, from shoulder shots, to even chest shots. Almost all were pass thrus. I have seen them fail on hogs in WV shot at the chest plate. But also seen coreloks do the same thing on hogs later to be dropped with a broadsided shot. Now, I have been down South Carolina and seen those deer. None were over 210lbs like deer up north.
Failures I have seen if on a hog on head on shot, and a 250 yard broadside shot that hit the shoulder. Other than that, I have seen them with 50-60% wieght retention.
