[QUOTE="Eagleye242, post: 1751930, member: 111043"] I like to have the option to shoot an animal even if the presentation is not perfect. (read broadside) That means I want a bullet that will go through bone reliably and still reach the vitals. For this, the Bergers are not my first choice, and I would not be taking them to Africa with me. If you do not mind sacrificing a bit of BC, the A-Frames or Nosler Partitions are ideal. The Swift Scirocco II is one tough bullet, and gives you back some BC. I have no experience with the Hammers, so cannot comment. The Barnes TTSX is a very good monumental, but becomes unreliable once velocity has diminished. Just my personal experience. I am now 74, and have hunted all my life, taking all manner of game, and using many different bullets to do so. I stand by my observations. Dave. [/QUOTE]
