Re: Where have all the Hornady 9.5mm 270 grain RN bullets gone?

2450fps sounds pretty good for a max speed on the 235gn .375 Speer. Like the 9.3 270gn Speer, the .375 235 gn is pretty soft and won't like much more velocity than that.
I shot a few of these with full loads in an early peep sight Brno 602 .375 H&H, back in the early 1980's, and had extreme bullet failure with the bullets totally fragmenting on medium game.
At 375 H&H velocity they are too soft IMO, but should be fine at 2500 or less.




470; your experience is spot on mine {mid-80's}. I had awful performance of the 235 Speer on small deer.

But Daryl and a friend of mine both have reported excellent results {through and through shots} on moose and elk respectively.

Maybe these things vary as to lot and production run.
