6. Much cheaper than other premium bullets
Quote6. Much cheaper than other premium bulletsThat's because they're not premium bullets. At least I have never considered them to be. I have shot a lot of 150 grain ballistic tips out of my 270. I like them for their accuracy, and yes, the low price. There is no way I would use them on elk. But for deer and antleope they are good, just be careful and don't hit a shoulder or that shoulder will be wasted. The one incident that sticks in my mind, it was about 10 years ago on an antelope hunt in eastern Montana. I shot a nice buck antelope at 320 yards with my 270, dropped him on the spot. Great performance, and I was happy, but the issue is the bullet did not exit. It clipped a rib on the way in and destroyed both lungs, and I would have expected the bullet to exit but it never even reached the far side of the body cavity. At over 300 yards that 150 grain 270 bullet was not moving all that fast and what this tells me is that this bullet is definitely not one you'd want to try killing an elk with. But I would definitley use them again for antelope.
