Federal B.O.R.Lock mz who likes them?

All I use. Love these  things. Easy to load, shot after shot. Very accurate in my rifle. The pictures are recovered rounds from Deer both were frontal shots . Other animals shot, rounds not recovered. Devastating performance.

I have a bullet out of a deer that looks exactly like these, the one I have from an elk the petals were bent all the way back towards the base of the copper.

For guys who have killed animals with them, how far have your shots been. Wondering about the package stating “200 yard performance”.

Longest shot I have taken was 115 yards, closest was about 10-15 ft.  Recovered most of the bullets and they all look almost exactly like the pictures Rem14 posted, even the 10-15 foot shot (needed a finishing shot on my 2021 bear). Been meaning to push them out to 200 yards, maybe this year.

Thanks for posting that picture Lazy drifter, and while I am pretty surprised given my experience, it’s good to know nothing is fool proof.  How long of a shot was that?

If I remember right it was around 60 yards.  He killed a cow a few years ago with one of the 350 grain all lead B.O.R. Locks and was really happy with it. That is what he uses now.

Interesting, anything obvious in the tip that could have caused it not to expand? Like how home defense guys talk about clothing filling up a hollow point?

Like you said before, it did it's job and killed the elk, the other thing I try to keep in mind a non expanded 50 cal is still a pretty large diameter when you consider the size of a fully expanded center fire rifle calibers which we hunt with.
