[QUOTE="therifleman556, post: 1434888, member: 101898"] There's a great wealth of information on Nathan Foster's website about effective game killing and bullet performance. One of the methods that seems to work quite well is the fragmenting of softer bullets like the SST, A-max, and VLDs. It would seem that a brass projectile would have a better chance of replicating this type of expansion by producing a smaller and denser particle cluster versus the larger pieces of the copper bullet. The problem is velocity. I would have preferred to try the brass Lehighs, but with a 7mm-08 I'm not convinced I can keep it over the velocity threshold at any distance I might shoot at here. If I were still shooting the 7RM, I would love to try them. [/QUOTE]
