Anybody still using the old solid base bullets?

The 120 grain was my go to for the 25-06. I’ve acquired quite a few 150 grain 7mms and have others as well. They’ve worked well for me.

That's all I ever shot until they stopped making them and went with the Nosler BT. I did not care for the BT's. Started shooting the Partitions more and then the Accubonds. I really liked the old solid base boat-tail bullets.

I use the old 140 grain solid base in my 7x57 over H4350 and it is an excellent load. For practice, I use NBTs to save on my stock of solid base but they seem to fragment more when actually used on game. I've always wished that Nosler would bring them back but I know that isn't going to happen.
