Used RWS in 7mmRM in a David Lloyd rifle. It suited the barrel better than Federal and Remington and was clearly more accurate. Can't recall the name of the bullet but it delivered good expansion in Red Deer.

I use RWS whenever I fall into a good deal on it. I cant say enough good about it for factory loaded ammo. I have used it on everything from culling pigs with 243 Win to large game in Africa with the larger bores. My favourite being the 30 calibers particularly 300wm. All shoot very accurately and have good bullet weight retention. I dont remember the bullets nor much about the 375 or 458 rounds save they knocked everything I hit into the dirt. I think the brass is much better than the majority of the stuff here. Very consistant thickness even after being fire a couple times.

I use Cone Points in 6.5x57, TIG in 7x64 and 308, TUG and H-Mantles in 30/06 and 9.3x62. I find they work great on all but Buffalo and obviously Ele. Most work with a hard penetrating rear portion (approx three quarters) with the front section soft with cutting shrapnel.

RWS TUG are made for european game ( market ) we had 2 years ago fantastic Results in .375 on a 21 days Safari in the Selous. Next to Barnes X and Swift A Frame my third choice for African Game.
I believe MidwayUSA is having a sale on this ammo. Just deleted it the email...sorry

For me, the best factory ammunition! I have used it for big Red Deer and Wild Boar. In 7x57, 7x64 and .308 W. In both 7 mms used the H-Mantle and TIG. Prefering the H-Mantle above anything else!! And TUG in .308 great bullet also!
