If you can name more than three of these off the top of your head, you're #1...with a bullet.

Saw a neat show on flat base vs boattail.

I will plead less than knowledgable here ...
I was given boxes of .308 match grade boat tail, but not sure if it will have the knockdown for hogs ? 168gr boattail ..

I assume it will. Just never tried it yet

Depends on the bullet.

If it’s a match bullet (SMK—Sierra Match King, etc)...even though it’s a hollow point, it likely won’t expand, just pass through like a FMJ.

Hit 'em in the vitals, it won’t matter...

It is a SMK
Cool

Yes I watched one and they said flat base are better for shorter ranges out to 300 yrds. I think it was Guns & Ammo tv show.

Easy to name more than three..... but then I would expect it of genuine reloaders
