MikelravyRem 270gr sp in 375 H&H
I recently acquired a quantity of these for practically nothing. They feed and shoot great in my rifle and informal penetration tests on a stump were favorable. What I want to know is if anyone has actually used these on game and how they worked? Most likely use for me would be for moose or black bear.

RMillerI used one on a bull elk.
The shot was broadside and the bullet went over the heart and through both lungs and lodged in the opposite shoulder. No exit and no broken shoulder. I would consider this minimal penetration for use on an elk.
I never recovered the bullet. I had the elk processed at a butcher.
I would use them on blackbear but only broadside shots for moose.
