    Shot that young sambar with a tipped180gr interlock last week. 30.06 at about 40yards. Had cut the tip off. Lungs were soup. I suspect they are a tad on the hard side and need to hit bone.

    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    Yes the RN are great. And probably all of need.

    But i still have abt 200 of the 180gr. So, ill do my best to use them.

    Then I'll go to the 165gr interlock. Bought 200 couple of months ago to guarantee stock.
