Pete, I love those "good ol" cheap core-locts for deer and black bear.

Haha, so do I. I have shot 150s, 165s, 180s, PSP, and Round nose all out of my 30-06. If I am off a bi-pod or bench I have not had any that I couldnt keep in one ragged hole at 100 yards. Guess my gun really likes em.
Sorry, didnt mean to jack the thread, haha.

Just ordered some 150 gr nosler partitions from doubletap in Utah, they are claiming 2950 fps from a 22" barrel which sounds a little bit too good to be true but I've read pretty good things about them. Hopefully the shoot in my A-bolt.

I get 2950 fps with 150 grain Nosler ballistic tips out of my 270, so it's definitely possible.
