[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1476626, member: 10178"] I was doing crop damage control on white tail deer using 308 Win and 30-06 shooting 150 and 168 Sierra Match Kings. We are talking somewhere between 50 and 100 deer being shot. Most of the time the bullet acted about like the Berger VLD hunting bullet on impact and shots were usually inside 300 yards. BUT! Every once and a while and yardage of shot did not matter, the bullet would act like a FMJ and some deer were lost in the NC jungle they ran off into leaving no blood trail. So Murphy can show up and he usually does at the worst time like when you have that trophy of a life time in your sights. There are too many good bullets designed for hunting these days for me to personally take the chance on a target bullet. But that is just me. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
