    Bthp?

    Buddy gave me a box of hornady black 6.5CM BTHP. Never shot these are they good hunting bullet? And are they safe through a suppressor?

    I shoot them out of my .260 and never lost a deer to them. Perfect expansion out to 375 yards. I ran them at 2750fps from my .260.

    As long as they stabilize they are suppressor safe.

      I picked up 4 boxes at Academy of them for my daughters gun. Only ammo I could find at the time. She killed two deer with them, she made perfect shots and both deer went down within 20 yards.

        Barnes tsx, Sierra match/gameking, Berger hunter/elite hunters, etc are all HPBT’s. Great accurate hunting bullets.

          I love these for shooting targets or animals. They punch holes, great hunting round. Perfectly fine through a can.

            When i received my CRUX sup, the manual specifically said not to shoot BTHPs through it. I couldnt find any reason online and could never get a response from CRUX (pretty typical) as to WHY. That said, I've shot almost exclusively Sierra match kings for the life of the can and have had no issues. In other words, I have no idea.

              Never shot an animal with them, but have run a bunch through a suppressor.

                Never shot any through a can but I’ve killed a bunch or pigs with .223 Hornady Superformance Match BTHP

                    Killed a couple of does and a black buck with that Hornady black out of a 6.5 Creedmoor. Good bullet got good expansion and penetration on all 3 of the animals I killed with it. And my cousin j sold it to has killed some stuff with ame bullets no problems either.
