    Speers

    Not the type ancient man wielded but Speer bullets of cours lol!

    I'm after experiences from people using the 165gr BTSP 30 cal round.

    Intended use; a lighter weight long range round for my Wm.

    As I'm a fan of the hotcor for bush hunting I'd be hopeful these do thnot business too :-).

    Cheers team

    Used them in my 300wm for a couple of years. I had two loads so only used these on animals over 300 yards. Killed everything I shot with it but never had a bang flop with chest shots. Also never had one exit.
    I now use them in my 308 bush pig MV 2500fps (don't have a 300 anymore) and they still kill things.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
