Default RE: Bullet Failures

Before you started looking at the internet where did you get your information on bullet performance from?
Whitehorn, I guess I got it from real situations unsponsored. Like I said, I maybe lucky. On my first moose hunt, a guy in the camp was using a 270 and shooting 150gr corelokts. Now its no secret I don't like those bullets. I was using 91gr of H1000, and 200gr swift a-frame in a 300RUM.

Well, he shot a caribou, and found the bullet. And looked at me and said, "see bigcountry, no need to go out and buy all those new fangled bullets and spend all that time worrying about it.". He had a dead Caribou, and next day got his moose. All died, all proper shots. I did too. Same outcome, big effort difference. Just got me thinking.

Just food for thought for you guys. I mean, we all know there is alot of BS and all that goes on in forums. Just the way it is. I take for mostly entertainment value, and like to help someone if I can.
