Default Cup and core bullets - campro vs hornady interlock

Any real difference on game between the various cup and core buĺlet options? Specifically hornady interlock and campro for 303 brit. Interesed only wrt terminal ballistics at ranges less than 200 yards.

Never shot Campro bullets but have killed animals with Hornadys and they work well out of a Lee Enfield.

Thanks Cat. Always enjoy reading your posts.

What about relative Sierra Gamekings, winchester super x, and Rem Core-Lokt?

The Sierras were my goto bullet for years, both for vintage service rifle in my Long Branch guns and my hunting rifles, the 174 match King for competition and the 180 grain Pro Hunter for hunting.
neither ever let me down!
I still use Sierras in other cartridges as well, especially the .223 and 6mmBR........

Default Cup and core

I’ve been loading and shooting Hornady Interlok for over 40 years, and have taken many, many big game animals with them. They have never let me down.

Interlocks work good. I think any cup and core will do fine at 303 velocity.
