  1. I never tried it on goose. I use sako softpoint 50 gr. Never had any bird flying ... But after your comments I will definitely try it this year
  2. Tailgunner doesn't the goose/rabbit just "explode" like the bullet ?
  3. jjrckd if they have used v-max with lower speeds then for sure it should work with nosler. As i know v-max is even more explosive like nosler and it needs 2000 fps to start exploding unlike nosler that starts expanding at 1600.
  4. Cederho if you look in the picture i posted the nosler will "explode" if it goes very fast(3000 ftp) but should only expand at 1800 fps. Also because the other bulles in this caliber ( i use 222 ) have low BC and nosler performed very well in my old winchester 70. i usually have my 17 hmr with me for rabbits but if i am out for fox i have the 222. Its hard to have two rifles with me all the time. Also shooting a rabbit with a full speed 50 grs softpoint does a lot of damage....
  5. I am new at reloading and i was wondering if you could use for example nosler ballistic tip (.224) with a low speed ( 1800 fps ) for shooting meat game. rabbit, goose .... ? I have used this bullets with high speed (3300 fps) for fox where meat damage doesnt matter and they work perfect. At this speed they "explode" but if i would lower the speed to 1800 i think expansion and sound is lower. Has anyone tried this ?
