Default BULLETS???

These things are so pretty I am not sure if I should shoot them or **********. Well you guy's know. I figured out with these expensive bullets, powder, and primer's, I will have close to $1.50 a shot. I can not believe I bought these bullets. You guy's have corrupted me!!! Tom.

They should work perfect for those 200 yd shots

If you want to shoot cheap, shoot the .22..

I do mold my own for the .40 and .54 flinters...

I'm just glad I bought 5-6 boxes of the T/C Shockwaves a couple of years back so I don't need to try any new bullets...I will say this, if they work as well as the original (mushroom) Barnes and fly as flat as a 250 SST them I will be trying them after I use up my SSTs, course that might be awhile, I didn't even load the Knight last year, stuck with my flinters...

HEAD0001 it only gets worse. And I have walls to prove it. These things are really fun to shoot but they can be frustrating as well. I shot those same bullets out of a couple rifles. The only way I could get them accurate was to push them hard. 120 grains of Pyrodex in my Knight Disc with them.
