Home made HP's, from factory Remington 300 blakout 220 grain OTM's. The bigger HP is 210 grains. The smaller HP is 216 grains, The second pic is the 210's over uncut 220 OTM's. Shoot for the neck. If you miss they live, if you hit they drop. I've been managing my herd like that for years.

240's always worked well in my 308. I think I shot 4 or 5 and the standard exit wound looked like a knife wound (sometimes shaped like the bullet outline undeformed). 220 hornady RN would exit with a ragged hole about twice the diameter of the bullet--shot 6 or so with that round. I've only tagged one with the 300W using 220 SMKs, it passed through the chest cavity like the 240's.
I'd like to try the Outlaw bullets, but I haven't brought myself to pay that much for pills. They're as expensive as my 50cal pills and I haven't gotten over the sticker shock yet. How did you guys modify the SMK's above? Drill, sander, file? Was it a pain in the ass to get the weights consistent? |
mine are not SMKs, they are a prototype bullet made by a friend, designed specifically to expand at slower velocities. same concept as the outlaw bullets but a different design

I went w/the 240 Outlaw and am very happy. See my other post,http://www.quarterbore.net/forums/showthread.php?t=8308
Yeah they are a little over priced but they leave a nice exit wound |

125s at subsonic velocities? I've got some hornady110 vmax loaded over a full case of trail boss, but I haven't tested them on a critter yet.

Personaly I don't see the point of super sonic Whisper loads. I built mine to be quiet, if I wana make noise I use the 30-06. Not knockn any of you guys that shoot the light fast bullets I just like the heavy slow ones. What I really like is shootn a deer and havin another one walk up 10min later.
