[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1344328, member: 4191"] Never shot the tipped Trophy Bonded bullets, but have shot game and brown bear with the original Trophy Bonded Bear Claws and they were very deadly on game. One of my favorite bullets for brown bear at less than 300 yds. If the tipped bullets terminal performance is similar to the original Bear Claws, then with the tips and their higher BC value, they should provide excellent terminal performance out to 600 yds. Beyond that, a higher BC bullet might be better. I still commonly carry Bear Claws in the magazines of my bolt rifles for bear & camp defense rounds. 160gr in 7mm, 200gr in .308, and 225 in 338. I'm about out of the 225s, and am transferring into 275gr Swift A-Frames in my 338s for bear defense rounds. I hope they begin offering additional Tipped Trophy Bonded bullets in .308 and .338. I'd order some for bear loads. [/QUOTE]
