[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1530202, member: 30902"] My experience with the BT's was that they were just way too explosive to suit me in high velocity 7mm's like the STW and WBY. Even with my old 7RM shooting game at 300-400yds they often lost well over 75% of their weight and never exited. That produced a lot of very undesireable results especially on tough game like hogs. After about a decade of shooting them I found the Interbond and shot it almost exclusively for everything until they took their "pause" in manufacturing them for the roll out of the ELD series. Fortunately they've gone back to making them and I'm leaning on the people responsible to start producing them in heavier versions. A 140-145g 6.5, 165-175 in 7mm, and 195-215 7.62. I pointed out to them just how much of the long range market and faster twist barrel market they are missing out on by only producing the low to mid weight for caliber bullets and last I heard there is some movement on doing so. Of all the lead core bullets I've shot over the years it's my favorite because they simply have never let me down. [/QUOTE]
