.223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

DRT is lead free but it's far from a copper mono

True, usually people mean "non-lead" when asking so I jumped the gun, he did specifically say copper.

Anybody used the AAC 75 gr Black Tip Sabre extensively? Maybe it's been mentioned and I missed it.

We've tried it on one hog and a WT doe. Impressive performance on both. Cheap enough to shoot a lot of. Accurate enough in my Savage Trail Hunter, but not in my Cz600 Trail.

I'm gonna try that. The Grendel black tip is amazing on deer, and it's SD doesn't suck at all. If the 5.56 version is similar it's a winner.

I’ve used it enough to be comfortable with it. I’ve posted about it here a couple times.

The only other .223 round I’ve used is a 64 grain Winchester round. It was fine too. I’m looking forward to trying out a few others in the future.

Nothing new here. 60 yards, high shoulder, 77 tmk hand load, instant lights out. Maybe took a step.

We’ve killed a handful of southern Alabama whitetail doe with them. All impact velocities have been >2200fps. They’ve functioned fine. We’re getting ~2660fps out of 16” AR’s. TMKs seem to be better, but the results have been the same.
