Well stated Sir!
I have also noticed who starts these little p%### contests. We should be
able to view things that are pointed out & logically conclude what is best for us without saying other views are crap or accusing others of being "paid off for their views".
You will not make peace with the Bluecoats, you are free to go.

Sorry, Redhawk, you are wrong.  I've used numerous premium bullets.  I still do if the situation calls for them. Of several different makes.  In their place they do a good job.  However anytime someone doesn't agree with you, or gets tired of hearing you rant, they become "premium bullet haters".  Kinda like that thinly disguised "premium bullet" thread you started.  It really had nothing to do with premium bullets but rather was just another opportunity for you to tout Barnes bullets.  
I like NP's and Grand Slams.  And I've shot quite a few Woodleigh bullets.  They have never failed to fetch what I've sent them after.
 But then, with one exception, so have the standard bullets.
That should be bottem line don't you think?  
If someone ask "what about a xxx bullet" and I have any experience with it, I try to tell them what my experiences, good or bad, have been.  I don't try to sell them stock in a company they're not interested in.  
As far as not reading your post, I try not to but there are other folks that come in these threads that have experiences and knowledge that could be of value to us all.  I find it hard to concentrate on their information when they are being shouted down at every turn.  And, of course, there are some that may not post valuable information lest they be shouted down.  
I don't have any problem with you shooting whatever you like.  And telling us about it.  But every post about bullets shouldn't be turned into some sort of dick-measuring contest.

Redhawk/Lawdog, does GB get any money for all this advertising you guys do for Barnes or do you keep it all?


I'm still waiting for the check from Barnes to arrive in the mail BUT when it does I intend to keep every penny.

Why does every thread regarding bullets, in this case Core Lokts, have to turn into a pissing match with anyone that doesn't believe a Barnes bullet isn't some sort of magic bullet?  It does get tedious.   :D


You know the same could be said about anyone that recommends their favorite bullet/rifle/cartridge/caliber/etc.  People have their favorites and like to recommend them.  Also people have the right to tell of their experiences be they good or bad.  People opinions/experiences/preferences differ and forums like Graybeard’s are for people to express those viewpoints.  Lawdog

Gary aka Lawdog is now deceased. He passed away on Jan. 12, 2006. RIP Lawdog. We miss you.

Wow, I feel as if I should keep my experiences to myself because beemanbeme does not like to hear me repeat myself. Well let me tell you JACK, I will keep posting about Barnes bullets, good or bad regardless of your ill feelings toward me.  Remember you can put me on your ignore list and you won't see my posts. After this you are on mine.  :D  :-D

It's funny but I post on afew other site as some people here do and there dislike for Rem bullets is a well know fact so think at times hard for them to keep an open mind or see another point of view.  Last year my nephew kill a 5x5 bull laser him a 295 yds and alittle over that took a 4x4 buck with rem 180gr bullets this year appr 30yds shot a 5x6 bull elk and 5x4 buck appr 100yd all with rem bullets.  First bull bullet thru ribs just back of front shoulders small hole going in larger going out never found bullet second bull just back of front shoulders small hole going in larger going out never found bullet mim meat lost  both buck one shot kills on both deer.  I haven't had a shot in two years but before that I've used Rem bullets and never had a problem with elk,deer or antelope.  I use a 6mm 100gr rem bullet in my 6AI for antelope and varmits and works great on either and in another 6mmAI I use rem 6mm 80 gr bullets just for varmits.    I saw the post about the 300wby now my own experience with a 300wby and 180gr rem bullets was alot different as I shot about 10 elk with that rifle  and very seldom had to take a second shot of course mine were bulls and took one B&C mulie with that rifle.  I play around with some of the premium bullets every year just to see how they shoot.  Just my .02
