Wondering if anyone has any experience with this round? It's by Remington marketed under the old Peters name, brass case, blue tipped bullet, retro looking box (kinda cool). I found a decent deal on a couple hundred rounds and seems like it would make a pretty good round for Impala/ Whitetail size animals.
 
Yea that's kind of where I'm at as well, be nice do be able to use for hunting though. I have a pretty decent supply of utilitarian stuff.
 
I've never used it and have no experience but whitetail and impala are non-demanding applications for a 165g 308 bullet. Any new bullet marketed such animals should be at least adequate to the task. I wouldn't hesitate to use one.

Thanks again for your support on the Rhodesian Shotgun thread. From the amount of "LIKES" it received, it appears there was only ONE person who objected. Hes also the same one who continually insisted on interjecting his posts that werent relevant to the thread.
