Have any of u shot these bullets at deer
« on: October 12, 2007, 06:16:05 AM »
Winchester super X positive Epanding point it is like a hollow point with little slices at the edge of the hollow point to make it open up faster i guess. on the box it says for thin skin,light muscle and bone , ideal for game such as antelope,mule deer, whitetail deer and black bear,it says rapid controlled expansion, i was just wondering if any u guys have tried these of deer i have a rifle that likes them pretty well its a 25-06 they are 120gr, and i dont want to shoot them if they open up to fast like they look like they might and not get good penatration
1 shot 1 kill

That load was a favorite of my 25-06 toting hunting buddies when I lived in Wyoming, they used it on both deer and elk. They were meat hunters and generally had no problems as long as they kept the bullets off the elks shoulders.
