[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 267079, member: 3733"] Don't lump all the nosler BTs into the same boat. You used a 150gr at a velocity it was not designed to take. In a 308 win that 150 gr is a killing SOB. For quite a few years I used 180 bts in a 300 win mag at 3000 fps. I can't recall all the deer I killed with that combo but I know I never lost a single one. The only one that needed a second bullet had been hit in the liver/gut and when I walked up to it he was still alive. I have used 150 nosler bts in my 7wsm and have yet to have a blow-up or one not expand. But I wouldn't load a 125 bt in my 300 rum and expect it to work. [/QUOTE]
