Shucks, at the price they're asking that bullet better field dress the deer and haul the deer back to your truck.

Things I've Learned: (1) It's not possible to please everyone, but quite easy to piss everyone off. (2) If you love animals as I do, then you're not a vegetarian. (3) There's no need to act stupid, even if you're very good at it. (4) If you eat right and exercise, don't smoke or drink, you're going to die anyway.
That does look like an average cost for a premium bullet. Whether they work well, would be a matter of testing.

Be sure and let us know your experiences if you do decide to try them.. I like the reports of forum members experience much more then testimonials on their site.

Did I miss something? Looks to be $36 or so per 50...lots of bullets priced higher than that.
Well, they are copper jacketed lead core bullets. I was checking out the 200 grain 40 calibers, which are $36 for 50. I think that's pretty pricy. Forty caliber 200 grain XTPs are around $20 for 100. Even the .410 210 grain Gold Dots (which are premium bullet as far as I'm concerned) are only around $24 a hundred.

That's the advantage of using pistol bullets, they'll always be cheaper than dedicated ML bullets due to volume. The FTXs are cheaper too. I guess my point was that Barnes, Powerbelts, Precision RIfle, and even Shockwaves are that price or higher so I didn't see it as being unusual.
I consider myself a very cheap bastard, but don't think these bullets are that bad. I would love to give them a try. we are somewhat limited in the bullets we can use in a sabot for our sport. It would be fun. Think will try an order.
