The bullets/factory ammo that my dad, my son and I have been using has "worked" fine. No lost animals in 20 years of hunting, however, I feel there is something we are missing in bullet performance.
15ish years ago I purchased my Rem 700 Mountain Rifle in 7mm-08. I shot factory Hornady Light Magnum 139 gr bullets with incredible performance. DRT with pretty large exit wounds. Since they discontinued them I have yet to find a replacement that provided that performance on deer. I even called Hornady and the gentleman I talked to didn't know what bullet it was. If was not the SST however. If memory serves me it was just a Spire Point, but I'm not positive.
Thanks everyone.
