After paying for a hunt , why take a chance on ammo that you are not sure of ?unless you get some good info on that ammo I would stick with a known entity, I've had great sucess with premium Federal .250 gr.

They are a very tough bullet; they are known to retain 90% of their original weight. I would use them if they group well for you. Don't be scared to hit bone. Good luck.

YEs they are a top bullet just not well known. If it shoots good go for it and don't worry about bone just plow right through.
