[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 3298185, member: 4319"] RE ballistic tips, I should note our deer in the NEOK Ozark foothills are not big bodied like out in farm country or anything. That said I am beginning to become a sturdier bullet guy and haven't shot a ballistic tip since I shelved my last .270. I am going to be putting together a .270 or 7mm Rem Mag over the off season for a longer range/western gun...and I plan to run either Accubond or Partition in it and just run the same bullet for everything. Part of the appeal of rifle hunting to me is opening up hard angle shots etc that you wouldn't take with a bow. I certainly feel confident running a 225 grain accubond through about any weird angle lol. You can broadside double lung a deer with a sharp stick, or a tiny rifle with varmint bullets, but I don't want to only take perfect shots with a rifle. And I see few downsides to shooting a more controlled expansion type bullet even at smaller deer etc. [/QUOTE]
