    @csmiffy I found trusty old 130gn hornady Sp were great for bush hunting, tried 140accubounds (2800fps) but they tended to pencil thru at close ranges, need to be driven faster, the 130gn ones would be better if driven hard. I now use 145gn ELD-X.

    If you would like some samples (12-15) to try before buying a full box, I have here, 130gn Hornady, 140 Accubonds, 130gn Nosler B/tips and Sierra 140gn, I’ll trade for a 500ml bottle of either Panhead Pilsner or their Pale ale.
