Yes, it would and then some. I used them for quite a while until changing over to the 225 Nosler Partition. I've got 3 more boxes if you want 'em. #2850 Sierra BT

Nick, if Bighorn doesn't want them let me know. They ought to work real good in the STA I'm building.

They work fine for broadside and slightly angled shots, I would not try a raking shot with them, I would with a 225 Nosler....So why??
