Used all copper bullets in 12a west back in 2001,they are most accurate bullets I have shot out of my 270, federal factory loads with a 130 grain barnes xtc. One shot and my buck was down,weight retention was almost 100 %, expansion was perfect. I now shot barnes all copper bullets in all my centerfire rifles.
This past few days I have been seeing herds of 9 to 15 does all with younger bucks following close behind and even bedding close by the does,this has been noticed by myself since the beginning of dec. I have also found bigger herds of whietail does,upwards of 15 to 20 does together. I am in southern AZ.
