[QUOTE="SpeedymanWCC, post: 2708732, member: 121149"] I used ML exclusively before Indiana allowed Hi-Po rifles. I have now succumbed to the ease of modern rifles. I still use what I have learned from my days of being a smoke pole sniper. One thing was to wait patiently for the best shot placement opportunity. You only get one shot and can't see shat until the smoke cloud drifts away. The other thing is using copper solid bullets. I switched from Hornady SST to Barnes ML Expander EZ bullets. Just like I switched from soft point bullets to Federal Trophy Copper bullets for my 30-06. The Trophy Copper bullets cause unbelievably massive exit wounds and instant DRT results on the 5 whitetail deer shot from 25yds to 150yds. Sadly Federal discontinued the Trophy Copper line...I guess after I run out of my second box, I'll have to handload Barnes. Any ideas if the Trophy Copper bullets are exclusive to Federal or are they manufactured by a different company? Copper bullet with a dark green ballistic tip. [/QUOTE]
