Hunting & Fishing Deer season XP bullets

[stello1001]

Anyone have any experience with them? Have you all had successful results on game with them? For their. 264 cal bullets, Winchester is claiming a g1 of .540 and i want to believe this but pretty sure it's an inflated statistic. Can anybody who's used this bullet confirm or invalidate the BC? What is your dope saying or what BC did you have to use to true up your data? Any info would be helpful as I am wanting to give it some consideration as a lightweight and low cost hunting round.

Interested...

Anyone?

how quick to bang flop? How do they hold together/ penetrate?

I used the 308 150gr. Took a doe at a bit over 300 in the neck so I couldn’t tell you about bullet performance. Blew right through it.

Bringing this thread back up because it's hunting season. Hoping somebody here will have experience with them...

I shoot them in both of my 270WSM’s and in one of my 243’s. They do the trick in both! But..... at close range in the WSM I have had a couple come apart, not all of them but some do. But the deer was DOI ker flop I’m telling ya! You won’t be disappointed.

Great info. Glad someone is using with success!

If your gun shoots them accurately I bet they are fine. I Used to use the silver tip Winchester bullets and never had issues. Now that we are covered up in hogs I mainly use my 6.8 these days otherwise I'd probably try a box
