go brass http://impalabullets.co.za/ i have these in 6.5 pig didnt know what hit it with a neck shot

Impala bullets have a really good rep over there.

i would like to know how much energy they dump on the game. that pig i nailed dropped on the spot the projo was only about 100mm in the ground. good guy to deal with to he will provide load data for your chosen powder.

James sierra 100 grains will do. Failing that the 85 grain sierra hollow point boat tail.
