It all kills fine. Also experiment with various hand loads especially when Belmont was in short supply. It all works, just got to know the limits, same with any caliber.

You cant say that, Gimp said they are bad bullets and I believe him. PPU 55 grn now thats a different story.......I hope

Bad in the context of "not at the optimal end of the range". Yeah you can use a 147gr fmj in your .308 too and in some circumstances it makes sense, but it isn't optimal for creating large wounds
