[QUOTE="Catahoula, post: 1043436, member: 28707"] Hey Mike, I too am already getting the :BEAR FEVER:! About the only thing I am changing is trying to get a tougher bullet for my 300 Win Mag. Shot a bear last spring at 45 yards with the Hornady 190 BTSP. Hit the bear perfectly behind the shoulder & it dropped right there. Then last fall I killed the biggest typical mulie of my life with the same bullet. This was a way longer shot. The buck was bedded on a mountainside & we ranged him at 587 yards. The bullet broke the shoulder bone going in & cut the top of the heart off. Where the bullet should have exited, I found 3 pieces. Both kills were very quick & lethal but I want a bullet to hold together better. I think Hornady quit making them anyway. What would your advice be for a heavy 30 caliber bullets for short and long shots? Thanks, Kirk [/QUOTE]
