What is your favorite deer and elk bullets? Just curious what everybody else is shooting.Right now i'm shooting 140gr accubonds out of my .270 for deer and elk. But i would like try the federal trophy bonded tip .
I would think either of those would be great for both deer and elk or anything else you want to punch holes through. Might try Interbonds or TSXs. If what ya got is shootin well, I'm not sure it'd be worth changin though. I really prefer to develop 1 load for each gun & for all game I intend to hunt w/ it. I don't mess around changing bullet weights. Deer doesn't care if he's gettin shot w/ an elk bullet.
I like those roundnosed 175gr rascals too, for my 7x57. I'm out of them now; may try Grafs and see if they have any. I need to find some 200-grain roundnosed softpoints for my 8x56MS, too; it shoots those old factory Westerns so well I want to duplicate the load. Anybody got 200gr RNSP .323's? .322's? I shoot too much to buy premium bullets for all my oddballs, but those roundnosed slugs do devastate deer & elk-sized critters. Buffalo has 250gr .356's for the 9x57, but the ones I tried shot funny, and they cost over four bits apiece, so I guess I need a new source for them, too. I've got some -06 stuff on the "pay it forward" part of the site, if anybody wants to trade. Good luck with the big storm, if it ever materializes, and mind yer topknots! windy
