[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2601308, member: 109862"] I’m gonna go out on a limb here and give you some benefit of the doubt: I suspect your bad experiences happened with the early ballistic tips. Is this true? The early ones were essentially frangible. The current ones are not, much thicker tapered jacket and they’re not all the same From caliber to caliber or even within the same caliber. The 180 grain 30 cal is very stout actually, leaves good exit wounds on big whitetail bucks in my experience and I know a guide who exclusively uses a .300 win mag with 180 ballistic tips for elk hunting, for over a decade, no failures.
