Looking for info comparing the two - particularly on-game performance of the E-Tip. I just don't read much about that bullet and have never used it.
The specific combo I'm considering is my 30-06, 24" barrel, Rem 700 for African plains game.
I've had excellent success with the 165 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip at 2940 fps via H4350. And the 165 gr Partition is well known to me as well. I've already ruled out my 165 gr Ballistic Tips for this hunt, though they've performed well for me here.
Do I gain or lose anything by going to the 168 grain E-Tip, instead of the 165 gr Partition?
Any info on making E-Tips shoot well, and any accounts of them on game, are much appreciated.
Thanks, Guy
