Bigger reason for a tipped bullet for this load is because its for a autoloader . Browning BAR mk4 . I figured it would reduce/ stop from smashing the lead tips when cycling.
I use a Sierra gameking btsp in one gun . It did the job with a base of neck shot . Crazy part is it didnt exit!! And...
I just didn't know how tough that accubond for partition bullet was honestly if I'm going to hit him in the base of the neck just order the shoulder any soft point would probably work the amount of shock is what's going to break the neck probably
That would be to easy 🤣.
Ideally yeah that would work great especially with a 175gr matching (m118LR) load. Thay do the damage.
Unfortunately the state of Alabama you have to use an expanding bullet. We have shots a few dear with the 175 grain load it goes through both shoulders !.
I can place bullet anywhere i want out to 1k yards . Learned that very well with a issued m24 sws . Its the preference of the bullet that would probably make a difference if you try drive it through a high shoulder shot VS just say through the flesh and heart or lungs.
One bullet might just...
Man those look like thay did great.. did you recover those recovered from deer ? The accubond seems like a tipped partition thats bonded .. im really tempted to try these on a high shpulder shot or base of neck shot
I dont mind paying for the better bullets . Just didnt know if how thay would preform on our small deer lol or if thay would just pencil through if hit soft tissue
I did consider the speer hot core bullet but never knew or heard anyone talk about them . .. iv often wonder what bullet the federal powershok in the blue box uses. Ot seemed pretty good on a doe a friend shot last year
I have never tried them or known anyone to try them . Id think it work good tho .. if i go with ballistic tip or a gameking ill probably aim for the yellow dots . I used to aim for white dot and thay never made it off the plot. Thats why I was thinking about the nosler partition. It would push...
That Makes sense. How you feel about the Hornady sst ? Vs the nosler ?
Iv shot one with a Sierra gameking btsp at 90 yards in the neck . Bullet didnt exit. Guess it just dumped all its energy in first few inches . Maby thats what I need for small deer here ? Fast expansion?
I have a chrono . Now im curious to see what sppe my one gun is pushing the gameking lol.. yeah the faster expansion is probably better option on little deer . The partition states big game , thats why I wasnt to sure if it would open fast enough
Good to hear . Have heard the partition isn't...
Iv shot 1 Deer with the 150 gameking btsp . Base of neck shot at 90yards . It didnt exit . Thay must have rapid expansion and dump energy instantly to not exit at 90 yards
