[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2259388, member: 109862"] Oh no you didn’t!!!!! 😱🤣. No worries, all opinions welcome on here, though a statement like this is one massive can of worms to open. So long as sectional density, the definition of “overbore”, the idea of hydraulic/hydrostatic shock, and the subject of flippin’ carbon rings don’t also come up we’ll be fine. In my own experience match bullets of sufficient mass (I think they should be much heavier than equivalent purpose hunting bullets) are at least as effective as hunting bullets in certain situations. Can’t deny field results. But I myself am also leaning towards the 180 tbt at this point. what really grinds my gears are traditionally opinionated hunters (because calling them old timers is offensive!) I know who don’t hesitate for a second to assert that a .243 with a 100 grain power point is a proven “hunting round” and approve its use for big game while raising their eyebrows at my lack of wisdom for using a fragile target bullet for hunting…never mind that it’s a 225 out of a .300 win mag.
