[QUOTE="stiff neck, post: 2666381, member: 13175"] 130+ is doing it "wrong" for copper bullets. They are designed to be "light for caliber". You're supposed to drop DOWN in weight from your normal lead weight, because copper bullets rely on the extra velocity and they do not shed weight like lead bullets. You don't benefit at all from a heavy copper bullet, it's the opposite. Consider that the Hammer Bullets owner, with all his experience and customer feedback, built a 6.5 Cr for the purpose of using 85gr Hammer Hunters on deer. But you think 134+gr are better. Think about that, do you know better than he does? [/QUOTE]
