220 grain FMJ bullets in .308" - supplier?


Thanks for sharing.

Respectful comment.
A spear penetrates very well. Not only because it is heavy. But length in relation to diameter.
6,6mm Mauser/Swede. 140 grains.
7mm Mauser 170gr.
303 Britist 215gr.
318 WR 250grains.
375 H&H nowdays, 380 grains.
458. Not quite to the same degree. But 550 grains goes a long way.
All at moderate speed. History proved it.
I was married to a 30-06 as well, shooting 180gn. Huge mistake. Do only bush hunting. Impala to eland. Maybe. At an outsude chance, a 200m shot. In a blue moon. With much less meat damage. 220 grains excel.
For those who prefer 3,500fps. Fine. There is a 1,000 metre shoots. In which 2,000 fps has no place. And a 500 metre hunting shot should be avoided. I've seen one half of an Impala side literally blown away. Rather distasteful. I hunt. Not slaughter.
Masterfully. Singularly. And to massive own advantage. Did did one person convert a hunting world. To a shooting world.
Each for his own.
Lead in the air.


William Bell quoted that an elephant can be hit with a field gun. To no avail. If the bullet is not placed correctly.
 
Buffalo. Have killed many dozens quite effortlessly with 180 grain CEB Solids and Hydros (.300H&H).
The old 220 grain Hornady solid loaded to around 2,300 fps bores into a hippos skull like a drill
