I was looking at these on one of the dealers sites. Has any one used their .308 150 gr PP bullets ? How are they accuracy and performance wise ( as a hunting bullet ) compared to Hornady Interloks or similar. They are a bit pricier. Are they worth it.

I have some for use in a pair of 303Br. Jungle Carbines I have but haven't tried them yet. They are on the pricey side but they were all I could get in 215gr. I have a friend that has used Woodleigh bullets and from what he says they aren't any better or worse than what's available in North America.

if i remember corectly the ballistic coefficient on the woodleighs is rather low , almost as bad as a round nose bullet .

The plans for today are reloading and I see a couple boxes of 303Br. empties waiting. I'll load up some 215gr Woodleigh and try them in one Jungle Carbine I have a scope set up on, for load tests.
burnt servo:
A quick check of a couple similar styled bullets seems to indicate very comparable ballistic coefficients.
- Speer 180gr RNSP..............0.328
- Hornady 174gr RN..............0.262
- Woodleigh 215gr RN SN.......0.316

Thanks for the heads up/link to the site. Not important but a minor point, I see 174gr 303 bullets listed but not the 215gr I picked up. Thanks again
