.307 & .356 Win
Has anyone tried Hornady's flex tip bullets in the win 94 big bores and your input. Thanks Dan

Not yet , but I will once I can get some of the new Lever Evoulution powder when it comes out .I will be doing some load development with the FTX bullets. My 356 seems to shoot most loads great , but I haven't found the accuracy load for the 307 yet.

Re: .307 & .356 Win
I bought a 308 me and tried the gummies last year. They blow up like varmit bullets on shoulder shots under 75 yards. No way I would use them in my .307 big bore. If fact, this year --like saturday -- I'll be waiting to shoot a der with the 308me with my .307 bullet --a 150 grain barnes X flatnose. No way they break up. My advice-- unless you shoot over 100 yards without exception, ditch the gummies!

Re: .307 & .356 Win
Solution searching for a problem IMHO.
I like the Speer flat nosed bullets just fine. I would like a good 240 or 250 .358 flat nosed though...
And I guess that Speer has discontinued the hot core and now it's deep curl...
But I'd be happy with Hornady or Sierra FN's too.
