I know a guy that killed a lot of deer with this bullet in a 308. Not a high BC bullet, but very effective at knocking them down at practical hunting ranges.

Sure Corjack... It's a nice, cheap and effective bullet for almost all game.

In my case, it still not tested on small animals such as roe bucks, but I'm sure that will work fine.

Greetings for all & good hunting !!
