Has anyone tried these or the 140 grain bullets from them. Iwould prefer the 160 since my new custom is being designed for the long heavies.

iv been using 160gr 7mm woodlieghs for a while i havent shot a great deal of flesh with them but the ones i have shot bullet performance was flawless good expansion and penetration. in the old wet paper block test they out pentrated sierra and corelocts of the same weight and expanded to 3 times original diameter. i can also get them to do .75" at 100yds try them i think you'll be happy with them!!

Thanks sambar 1--

I hope to give these a try in both my new 6.5SE that is being made and my old 1903 Mannlicher-S. They will get a run on wild boar, and blk bear.

.333 OKH, my experience with M1903 Mannlichers has been, if the bullet is 160 grains, IT SHOOTS!!! Have not been able to say the same for lighter slugs.
