Those 185's got the same hollow point as the 200's. I already know your results. Good luck and take lots of pics.

Hey Grouse,
I picked up some 275 grain Lehighs for my elk hunt. Went out on Saturday and got within 40 yards of a nice bull but he was walking straight away from me so no shot taken. Sunday we hunted the same area. Did not see another elk but a nice bull moose walked within 20 ft of me. I actually had to startle him so he would did not come any closer. Hoping to be able to post a pic for you but no promises.

Sometimes just being in that situation is more fun. Good luck the rest of the year.

I don't know about these bullets, but I did discove the new Hornaday FPB bullets. They are awsome in my Knight Vision along with 100 grs of BH209.

Do you have a website on these Lehighs? Who sells them?

If you are going to shoot the FPB, you might really want to look at the 'Thor' - it is probably a much better bullet than a FPB.

You might as well use your first new bullet first. If you dont like the results i would suggest the 250grn Lehigh for your vision.

Ya that's true, the Thor really has nothing to gain in my opinion. A Barnes MZ expander is cheaper and better on game. IMO
