Copper bullets

[Alaska]

Just loaded up my 338 Rum with 185gr TTSX and H1000 for moose. Should be a winner.

@Dudders I cannot say. I can say that my children used the .243 with 80gr Barnes TTSX to kill many of America’s largest deer with instant effect. Extremely impressed by what that bullet can do.

Been using North Fork bore rider design bullets since they went into production years ago. Still use the .411 and .458 bullets and never needed to drive them at very high velocities; 2250 in .405 WCF and 2100 in .458.
Performed very well in both calibers and in DR of both calibers.
Bore rider bullets need less propulsion and do not copper-up barrels.

I have had trouble telling the difference in performance between Barnes, GMX, Trophy copper ect. They all do what I expect a copper to do.
