[QUOTE="CliffM, post: 905861, member: 11533"] Beeman, The Berger bullets had identical performance on deer and antelope from 250- 610 yards, pinhole going in, golfball coming out. I have a lot of confidence in these. The Cauterucio bullets went 5 for 5 on deer and antelope at ranges of 150 - 350yards, very good in the wind but a little too aggressive at the shorter ranges for me. The 160 Matrix (had planned on killing elk with it:cool:) only took 3 quite small whitetail from 20-450 yards. I have tested these more than any other bullet I have loaded in 43 years. They have surprised me at how tough a bullet they are shooting into water filled jugs at up to 1030 yards yet worked fine on a 20yd whitetail(dug what was left of the jacket out of the far side hide, total soup inside). Bigngreen is building another 6.5Sherman for his youngest brother's graduation this spring and unless he changes his mind we will have 3 rifles shooting the 160 Matrix.(I guess that's saying in a roundabout way the Matrix is my favorite) 26" barrel Cliff [/QUOTE]
