Give me hard cast lead bullets with a big flat nose. Preferably big ones. .45 will do, .44 in a pinch. All big game I've shot with these have gone down without fail. I would trust my life to them before some designer hollow point of the month. Seen too many fail.
I TOTALLY agree here. I tell people in the store that all the time. We wear heavy coats around here in the winter.
