[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2602276, member: 122164"] 150, 160g Sierra's btsp are fantastic deer and hog bullets. My family has killed at least 300 deer with the 160g Sierra BTSP, and it gained the reputation of deer not running off when shot with it, with a load in the 7 mag with a velocity of 2950 fps, easily attainable in the 280 AI with a number of powders. The 154g Hornady sp thinks it is a partition in how it shoots holes through both shoulders on large hogs on broadside shots, Shock put on a deer's internals with the 154g Hornady SST is impressive, love this bullet in my 7 Mags. Many do not know how tough the Nosler 120g Nosler ballistic tip is. Nosler made the 120 with a thicker jacket for use in Metalic Silhouette comp to increase the "time on Target" helping the bullet knock down the large steel rams. The 120g Nosler ballistic tips are an excellent deer-hunting bullet, and I shot them on deer in my 7 Mag(3400-3550) and 7 STW(3850) with 100% success. Two friends went to Africa for the 6 Plains game with Weatherby Mark 5's, loaded with 162g SST. They both had one shot kills each including Eland and Kudu, the PH was very impressed! Finding any kind of bullet now that does not have the name Hornady on it is difficult to impossible, and even the hornady's in 7mm are scarce. Military production is killing the production of bullets we hunters like to shoot. [/QUOTE]
