[QUOTE="JakeC, post: 3051491, member: 115819"] I'm aware that people definitely use it for reduced loads with jacketed bullets. But use whatever you want. That sierra is a great bullet if you can get ahold of it, phenomenal accuracy. Don't expect to find a lot at the impact site. The YouTube channel outdoorEdventures, a member here, used to use 80 g 6.5 varminteer on hogs and dogs out of a 20" creedmoor and it was disgustingly violent iirc. Effective though. I have loaded them before. extremely fun to use. I asked my buddy what he used when he cared about fur, he said 175 a-frame or partitions. Two reasonable holes with enough fragmentation. It would be easier to have a controlled reduced performance than the barnes, but same idea. Harder to get though. They’ll work. They’re just a varmint bullet wearing a suit. Extremely willing to come apart. I get fragmentation initiation inside an empty beer can and they retain so much power that when I was using a 3/8” cable to hang a plate at 525y I snipped the cable off by hitting the plate about 2” away with the 180. That’s at under 2700mv. [/QUOTE]
