308 Winchester 165 gr Solid Base Whitetail Country

I just like thanks for the heads up. Looks like they’re pretty proud of the blems. Natchez shooters I see have my 180 grain .308 BTs for $23.99. I have too much of that stuff laying around already that I’ll never shoot up. Maybe I’ll have to horse trade for some of the stuff I’ve got laying around.
 
Nice, I was waiting for someone to put one of these in the jugs. Is this different from the original solid base?
 
The 308 Win loaded up with the 165 gr Solid Base clobbered this doe. She went 30 yards and piled up. The lungs were destroyed and there were a couple of pieces loose in the thoracic cavity. Significant trauma but not as much as the Ballistic Tip. So far I like what I see.

Nice to see on game results! I'm assuming a pretty good blood trail, though the snow definitely helps?
Excellent blood trail...
First picture shows the spray beyond where the doe was standing at impact.

Excellent. Description of the on-game results seem very much like the Solid Base bullets from years ago. Thanks for the description, and congrats!
