[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1954055, member: 75451"] This is only my opinion, formed 30 years ago, and perhaps Sierra Bullets have been substantially improved. But, a 300 grain .375 pushed at only around 2600 FPS muzzle velocity, completely disintegrating and failing to exit a spike mule deer on a broadside shot, began my disdain of Sierra Bullets for hunting! Shooting two more animals, with the same results finalized my opinion of them. When shot in a side by side comparison in a test median.....the “other” cup and core bullets did as expected/advertised, while the Sierra’s completely fragmented! They may be much better now.....But, I “will” never attempt to prove nor disprove them! I have a bullet that has performed flawlessly on all game for 25+ years.....I’ll stick with it! memtb [/QUOTE]
