the federal sierra gamekings BTSP are not like ballistic tips at all. their is no polymere tips in it . just good ole lead and copper in them.

RE: Poll: what caliber, weight and bullet for deer?
 

the hornady btsp don't have any plastic tips either. just lead and copper :)

Or Winchester M70 .308 Win. with 150 gr. Federal Premiums.
Good luck!

Savage 110 30-06; either 165 gr core-lokts or gamekings, whichever shoots best. both handloads in front of 56 gr. of IMR 4350 at 2770 fps. used corelokts last year, trying something new this year - - maybe
