Add the number me and my family have killed with them to Matt’s and it is more than most people will ever kill.

Handloads using Nosler 95 gr Ballistic Tips, Barnes 80 gr TTSX and B5 gr TSX have both performed excellent on deer!

I bought my sons a youth model 700 in .243 and we shot Remington 100 grain Core Lokt because back in the day, they were cheap and plentiful. I was going through their hunting bag the other day and found a full box tucked in the bottom.

I know a core-lokt will kill a deer, but the Barnes TTSX or Berger VLD will kill them deader


If you want to always win, never play anyone better than you!
