[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 2063661, member: 105459"] [I]I have used the Horandy SST bullet in 180 grain capacity and have had success not only in .300 Win Mag but also 30-06 & .308 caliber. I've found that because of it's aerodynamic boat tail shape as well as a BC of .480 it holds together well with proper expansion and not over penetration , additionally it shoots true. [B] Yes, it is not the most expensive bullet out there but to me it has proven itself, and that's all that matters![/B] I have taken Moose, Elk and Whitetail deer with this bullet of course using different chambered firearms all in the 30 caliber range and it has always been a performer for me. I have considered moving up to the 200 grain Hornady ELDX that has a BC of .626 but have as yet not found the need to perform load development on this bullet ( Please note that I have stated not yet, but perhaps in the future) In fairness I've also used the Barnes180 grain TSX with favorable results. [B]You will get as many different opinion's on this matter as there are flavors of ice-cream. In the end "To Each His Own"[/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
