The Gameking BTHP is a tougher bullet than the SBT......very good bullet and accurate too!

These bullets seem pretty tough to me for a cup-and-draw bullet. They penetrate well, and accuracy is excellent also.

Noticed that right many people here use the .85 grain in .243/6mm.Used them myself years ago with devastating results.One of the best projectiles that I ever used in a .243.Great accuracy,and drop 'em like a hot rock.If your gun likes them I don't hardly see see how you could go wrong.

I agree. I am among the "right (pronounced raught) many" people who uses the 85 grain hp. I also like the 100 grain Pro Hunter.

I had a 700BDL Varmint rig in .243 years ago that just loved the 85 gr. hpbt. That gun was an awesome shooter. Grondhogs hated it......

I have just loaded some 110 gr. for my .308 for coyotes. Haven't found a yote yet, but the groups were very tight. My first three shots were only two holes, and six shots were right around an inch.
