Are they the crimped HP? I have the pre loaded 135s in my .308 and they do an awesome job on goats.

How's the accuracy?

That's pretty light for a Rem Mag.

The HP mouth on them looks wide as.

They must about fkn explode when they hit a critter.

Yes,They do some damage.I had a small Kangaroo doe stick her dead up out some long grass at about 30 feet and I must of hit her on the nose as there was only one ear left on a bit of skin you could throw a basketball through.My best head shot on a big male was 270 metres but I was prone in a valley with a pvc benchrest and he was standing side on under a tree.I used a range finder on the tree

On the hill block the dairy farm leased 2 small streams converged and there was an open area that if the roos were pushed by my mate from the east they invariably would bounce down out the hill and pull up in the valley where I could plug a few.The small ones would come through first then the bucks.This particular buck went south before the valley and pulled up under a tree and I had time to spin through 130 degrees and settle and adjust the rest and take the shot.I settled the cross hairs on its ear and brained it.I had only had my 7mm for a couple of months and was all in awe.I had zeroed at 250 metres and was shooting up hill about 20 metres
