[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1815592, member: 26227"] Grizz, Being an Ex-Kalifornian myself, I can give you my deepest sympathies for still being in that state. Now for your question about expanding copper slugs. Berger has a 30-30 slug that has some of the best expansion I have ever seen at 30-30/308 velocities. you might look into those. look into Cutting Edge bullets I have not shot them but no one I have ever talked to about them could say one word of criticism except for price. WoodLeigh might not be what you are looking for... ACP Australian/"Aussie" Copper Projectiles they are absolutely awesome slugs. I only used them once but performed stunningly on bear. LeHigh Defense do not expand but they are deep penetrating and do massive amounts of damage. This comes directly from a rancher in Texas with hog problems. I can not put his statement down word for word because it has many words that are a violation of the 4th rule here. to sum it up. "Stellar performance, the hogs don't walk away" Now Hammer are solid/monolithic. I am not familiar with them. Look into G2 Tech. if they make the RIP in 0.308" you will be set. those are the most wicked handgun hunting slugs I have ever seen used. a 45 Colt Long hit a 800 pound hog about 50 yards out the hog did not laugh. the second shot put him down permanently. if you have a 444 Marlin or can get access to one, the RIP 44 caliber should make any hog dead where it stands. I own two 444 Marlins and have used Berger 44 cal handgun slugs in Cali. devastating combo. [/QUOTE]
