[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 355228, member: 816"] serious question cause you folks seem to have way more experience than me with bullets: other than the potential for lead in the meat (which at one deer a year these days isn't much of an issue for me), is there a reason to not use old fashioned soft points? like most on here, i killed multiple deer a year in the hay days of unlimited tags, a couple/year when i was getting a rez tag to compliment my ND tags for a few years after the hay days and at least 1/year for the last 22 or so years since i finished college and started hunting again. .243, 6.5 and 308. i venture they have all been lead tipped bullets that i can remember and i've never complained about their ability to kill. and the ones i find that don't exit look about as i would expect an expanding bullet to look like minus the pretty petals i see on those copper ones. maybe not as good a BC as others?
