So I saw these on sale and figured I would see if they shot in my M70 Extreme Weather. Who can tell me exactly who makes the bullet? Seems like the interwebs have conflicting stories. Some say its a Barnes. Some say its a Nosler that looks like a Barnes. Either way I think they will kill a deer...

Nice shooting Brian!
That bullet intregues me.

If I remember correctly originally they were Barnes but some time back they were switched to E Tips with grooves cut into them specially for Federal. The picture on the box does look like a Barnes but that doesn't mean they are loading them now again.
 
I recovered one of the Trophy Copper bullets from a young moose. The bullet was launched from my 338 Federal.

I'm virtually certain it is an E-Tip. Performance is identical to the E-Tips I've recovered from other cartridges.
 
Dr. Mike, I would concur, I recovered a 130 grain Etip from my 270 Winchester last fall that looked exactly like the one pictured.
