CFD914 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just was curious if this was a good hunting ammo, I have been shooting it at the range, and so far this one and the Hornady American Whitetail 150-grain have been my 2 most accurate in my rifle.

Culvercreek hunt club Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Great round for whitetail. If it shoots well out of your rifle you will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotorooter23 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Nothing too special but should work well like Culver said if you can get it to group well. Soft points are great for deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr VJP Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Nothing wrong with that ammo for deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I haven't had any experience with the factory loads, but I have been loading the Win 150 power point in a 30-06 handload that approximates factory load velocities for a friend for years. It groups well and he's killed a bunch of whitetails, mule deer, antelope, caribou and 1 black bear with my handloads with no problems. I would think that's a pretty fair endorsment for the bullet.

ants Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I have taken a few deer with that ammo in 30-06. It worked just fine. If it flies good use it and good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culvercreek hunt club Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Similarly constructed bullet, the Sierra game Kings in the Federal Vitalshok work about like the Powerpoints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doewhacker Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I had great results with Win Powerbonds 150, I no longer shoot factory ammo but wouldn't hesitate to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFA-ADK Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 lol ok stop I am in tears. Each guns fires a little different. For me the 165 grain works great. That round will kill any deer if that's what shoots great in your gun then your all set. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
