[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 478074, member: 13833"] I agree with most of the above. I never use to like monos at all but they have made vast improvements in the last couple of years. I still think their primary use should be for the closer ranges and heavier game. Thats not to say that they aren't effective on deer sized critters at closer ranges. For longer range, say over 600 yards, I still think the traditional swaged lead core, jacketed bullets with a high b.c. are far better. Some of the bullets I am currently making will expand down to 1400' and will maintain that velocity considerably further out than the monos. As was already stated, there is no such thing as a perfect bullet for every situation but there are plenty of good bullets out there when used appropriately.......Rich [/QUOTE]
