[QUOTE="FossyBear, post: 1902847, member: 114261"] Hey mate where I’m from it’s split 50/50 for those that are using match/hunting bullets. those that are using match bullets are nearly always going heavy for caliber in order to ensure penetration. I’m personally using 195 TMKs in my 308. I’ve now shot 10 animals with them. In all honesty I have lost one animal a Sambar (elk sized), when out of desperation I took an utterly stupid shot (Texas heart shot) at 100yd, if I had an AccuBond I may have collected that animal. the majority of been DRT and only one has run and made it 25yd. This was my main reason for shifting to match rounds as I hate when LR shooting watching em run and they spending the next hour having doubts about my shot. At least with match bullets they dump energy fast and anchor them on the spot. [/QUOTE]
