never had a problem with corelokts yet, i actually seek them out, find they shoot the best dollar for dollar, never needed a high dollar bullet for the lowly whitetail. seems to me if you aint huntin stuff that don;t try to eat, gore or stomp you, a corelokt in proper caliber will suffice. if you are huntin stuff that will try to eat gore or stomp you to death, i;d like a large solid please.
