[QUOTE="budlight, post: 455516, member: 2939"] I'm a .277 man. Sierra used to sell hard copper HPBT's 140's for 277 and 160's for 284. we used to use them on 1/2 inch steel swinging targets and those hard copper rounds would punch right through the steel at up to 200 yards. So I started using them on Yotes to get the prime winter pelts. all it would leave is a little hole. Now I use 140's or 150's in my 277 Sierra game king spbt loaded up near max speed. Small animals or even deer on classic broad side a heart lung shot goes through so fast that it doesn't even expand for your 30 cal I would look into Full Metal Jacket bullets. I've only seen them around 150 gr but they also have no expansion. [/QUOTE]
