>buy spier points, goy, they are so much better than round nose, BC is king, don't @me in the comments

>vid shows only like a 2 inch difference at worst at ranges people actually hunt
the spier point heebs are trying to drive people away from chadflat nose rounds. they must be liberals or yuropoors or some other form of homo trying to drive people away from the round nose like God and the bear at the mall intended

What's the fucking deal old man? I never heard of you til a couple weeks ago when you began spamming my normiebook feed, now you're on here regularly

>2 inch difference
If that's dispersion that's huge. That's the difference between cheap and expensive ammo

eww

They're good bullets

aren't CoreLokt just mechanically locked like partitions? you need bonded soft points
>>65627804
are you buying flat nosed? what king of bullets don't have a pointy or round nose?
>>
>>65628058
the fuck they are
theyre soft over expanding hunks of shit that get stuck in the first lungs and send fragmented bits of lead everywhere
the entire (((lead free hunting))) bullshit probably exists from fucking retards like you using corelokts and XTPs and leving lead fragment filled gut remains all over the fucking forest
>>
>>65628058
>They're good bullets
Nah, they're shit. If you have a nice clean broadside shot right into the heart then yeah whatever but under anything less than ideal conditions they start to show off why they're the cheapest ammo on the shelf and god help if you if you're shooting something that relies on velocity (like .243, the single most popular whitetail caliber after .30-30) because in my experience they have about a 50-50 chance of blowing up starting at 2900fps and in the other direction I've seen them fail to open more than nominally at ~2200 fps.

>inb4 richfag
Assuming that you're averaging five rounds of data dere gud huntin' ammo per year, the difference between paying $2 per cartridge and $3.50 per cartridge comes out to $7.50.

round nose is best

I'm unconvinced that there were more than 2 anons posting in this thread before I arrived. Prove me wrong.
>>
>>65629390
its dogshit in any velocity
theyres literal facebook posts of boomers complaining that they had to shoot a buffalo multiple times with 45-70 and pickout fragmented bits and it not penetrating to the second lung
anything with the name (((remington))) on it is shit
>>
>>65627002
literally who gives a fuck about "muh huntin rounds", get this off topic shit of my board
>>
>>65627002
just use whatever is traditionally used for your gun/caliber, done.

fuck off back to your irrelevant war in some third world brown country thread, yurothirdie. The Americans are talking about American things
>>
>>65632437
People who actually use their guns for non larping purposes do care about that, aka people who hunt

>CoreLokt just mechanically locked like partitions?
Not like partitions. Partitions are their own thing, and worth googling.
>You need bonded soft points
You really don't.
>>65632411
I don't buy corelokts but that's obviously horseshit, also having shot bison I would expect to put more than one round in it
>>
>>65633401
bonded softpoints retain have like 90%+ mass retention. how do corelokts retain their mass if it isnt mechanical like partitions?
>>

Partition bullets physically separate the core in two so that you can get an expanding nose and a tail that doesn't deform. You could have a partition bullet without mechanical lock, it would be counterproductive but you could.
Core Lokt has a suggestion of a mechanical lock, it's gonna work most times but it's a really old design and in edge cases they do lose the jacket and that "mechanical lock" fucks right off. Which is supposedly what happened to the Kirkinator round. That's why they also make the premium variant Core Lokt Ultra Bonded, which has a thicker jacket and the bonding process.

>the single most popular whitetail caliber after .30-30
The thing which is the single-most popular except for the other thing which is actually the most popular, is better known as the second-most popular thing.
>>
>>65634580
yeah, bonded is way better and will retain mass better, thanks
I wonder if they took down buffalo bore's schizo posting. he had like 2 dozen videos where he was just poaching animals in africa with neckshots with .30-06 to prove the jews did it
>>
>>65634856
He put his point in a positive manner, was still a functionally correct sentence.
>>
>>65627002
Anything other than corelokt is a waste of money
>>
>>65634859
>bonded is way better and will retain mass better
The assumption is that this is always desirable and/or matters. Generally speaking, the higher the weight retention, the greater the penetration, but at the expense of permanent cavity diameter. A buck is like 16 inches across at the shoulders.

I came full circle, started with cheap cup & core, went to copper, then came back to cup & core and ballistic tips. The ballistic tips kill the fastest, for sure.

I actually use my guns to kill and feed. You must larp or something. Sad.

>>65635038
I don't want to eat lead

>>65635054
If you're paranoid about it then use mono. They suck but whatever, they kill. You can also just trim the bloodshot meat away. And, you have way more to worry about from the organic lead compounds in primer residue then you do from minute amounts of inorganic metallic lead in your meat.

He just never popped up til lately. I think my phone has heard me talking about hunting with my dad.
>>
>>65643233
Where is he from? I'm not on any social media besides normiebook and I primarily watch black powder videos if I watch gun videos

He's from YouTube. Which is the only socmed I use. If you want to classify YT as socmed.
But I found him several years ago when looking for load data for a not so common cartridge nowadays.

>>65644285
That's entirely possible

I'll add him to my watch later list of videos. I still need to catch up on my Paper Cartridges videos
>>
>>65645718
Ron is likeable but he's a gun rag shill. He doesn't really get into any kind of useful information, unless you like splitting hairs between fudd cartridges ad nauseam.
>>
>>65645718
>>65646609
there are a bunch of vids with his kid or someone (adult kid, like guy in his 20s or thirties) that he isn't in that suck. and yeah he will fucking shill the fuck out of whatever new product they send him. he was shilling that 8.6 silenced round at one point which was funny
