Which manufacturer makes the "best" bullet of this type? I was thinking of trying either the Hornady Interlock or Sierra ProHunter. I used Core-Lokt's in the past.

Thanks,

Used the Hornady 150 RN to take three whtietail. Everybody thought I was crazy, not using the Spire Point, but if what I read is correct, which was the RN offers a larger frontal mass and expands quicker, perhaps giving better kills, then I liked the idea.
From these three deer, I couldn't argue against that reasoning.

Of course you loose the better BCs of the SPs. But where I usually hunt, I rarely get shots long enough for that to be much concern. One other thing, they grouped really well at 100m too, at least as well as the SPs I was using.

Edit point: My 270 was a Weatherby.

I wasn't aware that Speer offered a round-nose bullet in .277". Is it new?

They make a 150 Pointed Hot Core and a 150 Grand Slam, but not Round Nose to the best of my knowledge.

My 270 just loves the 150 REM RN Core Lokts with Rel 22 under them.

Several of my friends us the 150 RN Core Lokt Factory loads on Deer, and they work great.
