[QUOTE="Silver Dog, post: 2480235, member: 48303"] The only relevant experience I have was with a standard Mk5 W'by in 257 in which I was using 100gn Ballistic Tips pushed by 66gns of our 2213sc powder. A superbly accurate and effective load against, mostly, feral pigs on longer shots across cultivation. Came undone when a surprising shot offered on a big Red Deer doe at barely 30 yds.... Hit her in central neck, about 6 inches down from ear, aiming not to destroy meat... At impact there was a massive cloud of hair (double handful when I collected it), she dropped to her knees for a few seconds before shaking her head, obviously thinking *** was that???!!! She then stood up and galloped off, disappearing over the cultivation into timber half a mile away..... Not a sign of any blood! Changed over immediately to 110gn AccuBonds, 64gns of the same powder and have never had another blow-up, even on the biggest mud-coated pigs at even closer ranges.... You should not go wrong! These are great projectiles and have the benefit of non-distorting lead noses in the magazine, extremely accurate hunting loads! [/QUOTE]
