[QUOTE="Silent Hammer, post: 2611129, member: 108361"] I'm 65, was using 06 with 150 core locts from about 1970. My dad and uncle were using them in their Rem 721/06 and 270 obviously before me. I can't count the number of big whitetails taken always with exits and great results. BUT! The original core locts had the BC of a BRICK, ~(.315)! They work great but past 300 yards they'll drop like a rock. We didn't have the scopes like today, sighted in at 3,4 inches high at 100 and you're good. The difference between the old core locts and the tipped, which have a boat tail with a BC of .447, is like comparing a 30/30 to a 308! Tipped core locts are comparable to Hornady SST [/QUOTE]
