I heard about the effectiveness of this ammo from a friend and decided to try the 270 grain bullets in my African .375 Ruger. I sighted it in on the range at 100 yards and shot a .7" inch group. Later that year I went black bear hunting in Northern Maine and shot a 275lb male broadside in the shoulder at 25 yards. Complete pass through of both shoulders and immense internal destruction. Bear ran less than ten yards. I am so impressed with these bullets that I bought two more boxes and stopped hand loading because I can't duplicate these results.

Killed a huge 60" Yukon moose with the 270 grain. I dug the bullet out just under the hide on the opposite side. Exactly what a bullet should do. Animal absorbed all of the bullets energy. The bullet mushroomed perfectly and retained near 100 percent of it's original weight. Thank you Hornady. I trusted this bullet for the hunt of a life time. You can too.

I had no doubts about squeezing the trigger on a Alaska brown bear when I was loaded with these.

Very accurate. Shoots tight groups. Dropped a nice bull moose with one round.

Great bullet for the intended use. I have used them on Plains game and Elk with great success. I also was on Cape Buffalo hunt recently where another hunter used them on Buffalo with good success, one shot kill but did not strike the main leg bone. The buffalo did not go far and did not require a second shot. Even though it worked out for him, there are better choices for buffalo. But as far as plains game and the largest North American game, these are a great economical choice. Very accurate too, expect sub MOA groups if your rifle is up to it.
