[QUOTE="Mc Fraser, post: 1660875, member: 106529"] In my experience using target bullets on game is a risky business. No matter how you spin it, in reality, you are creating unnecessary pain and a slow death to an animal. That is not the definition of a true hunter ... Hunting bullets are designed to ethically kill game, target bullets are not. Personally, I use a light Tikka T3 in 270Win shotting and 140 Sierra SBT topped with a 2-7 Leupold scope, zero 4 inches high at 100 yds. So far I've taken deer and elk that never run more than a few steps. For long range, I am in the process of working a load for a 300WM with 210 Berger VLD. So far it looks promising. [/QUOTE]
