Hunting a lot of heavy timber. I have also not had an elk run far with a 220 grain bullet. Not that a lighter grain bullet isn't fine, I have just felt better using the heavies. </div></div>
Ive loaded some 165 Interbonds for a buddy at work, the 5 or so elk he shot didnt go far, either. Do you pass up a shot if its past 200yds since that heavy slug is almost useless? Guess folks shooting really heavy bullets especially at deer irks me a bit though it should'nt as long as they kill the animal cleanly. Whatever works for ya.
