Re: .470 NE Loads Any issues with Swift A Frames?

The Woodleighs are a lot easier to get and it appears from the comments that they work well. I know that my rifle is already regulated for them, so as long as they work well in the softs as the comments suggest, then I figure I might as well use them. I just have had fantastic results with the A-Frames prior and I am a die hard lover of them in my 7mm. Mag rifle. I have shot everything from Duiker to Eland with it and all have been one shot kills. I have shot many deer, elk, and pigs in the states and have never had any negative results from the bullet on any game taken. I had several negative results with the Nosler Partition on elk prior to switching to the A-Frames in my .300 Weatherby. We had shot several elk on one trip and they acted like they were not even hit and we tracked them forever with one having three shots in the boiler area that should have taken him down. All my elk shot with the A-Frames have went down immediately and have been one shot kills. My brother shot one elk that he used two shots with my rifle, but even he said it was mortally hit on the first and had already went down. It was trying to get back up so he shot it a second time. My fondness is due to performance in the field and they are great bullets based on what I have seen. I don't know why there was such a vast performance different between the Nosler and the Swift A Frames, but the animals were basically hit in the same areas and the results were completely different. I think the Noslers just shot right through the animals and did not expand well under the close ranges and the high velocity, whereas the A-Frames did and the difference in shock took the animals down quicker.
