    Yes, historically they have been more expensive than the Eld-X (the 120 B-Tip is currently $69/50 or $138/100) but Reloaders currently have 140 B-Tips at $49/50 or $98/100. Good buying if it suits...

    Mroach - what were the 'pressure signs' that you're referring to? Did they have heavy bolt lift? Or was it that the primers are VERY flat in appearance? If your rifle shoots the 140 Ballistic Tip...

    Yep really enjoy the heart. Not so much of a fan of kidneys and liver, though I do feel like I should figure out a good way to make use of them.

    Fair call - if it works stick to it! We don't spend much time hunting critters in the thick stuff down here so the 2x is fine for my perceived needs. When I can afford it I'll be debating whether to...
