I like big blood trails that dont lead very far and have dead animal at end of them. so far the .308 with 180s is doing that just fine n dandy...my last animal with them went possibly 50 yards down hill and that shot was say 3" too high from ideal.it went through the shoulder BLADES rather than main bones,both lungs stuffed....yip they just work.
    Hi MD I now have a 200 grain HP .30 cal mould can do FP and cup points as well, It has taken me a while to learn how to drive the bastard it's very temperamental
