xausa,
What brand of 250 grain bullets were you using that didn't open up on deer? It may be that they were designed for heavier game animals,(thicker jackets). I am concerned about this because I intended to use the 250's for everything, including deer hunting. I am doing this because they are what I have the most of. The next question I have is, even if they don't open up well, what kind of a job do they do on deer size animals if hits are properly made? Bob H.
