300gr Ballistic Tip Thor's

MountainDevil54 · 08-30-2010, 01:53 PM

Got some of the new ballistic tip thors in the mail today. These are packaged in 14 qty. Im not sure if Thor is going to repackage in 15 or not but i plan on asking about that.

.500" Thor is what all of my rifles "inlines" take so thats what i got.

Started at only 50 yards to check the scope out and see how they grouped.

100gr BH209 - CCI 209M - CVA Accura.

3 shot group,

that is some real fine shooting there. That sure looks like they will do the job.

Accuracy looks excellent but penetration is pretty pathetic. They went through the paper but not the cardboard the paper is taped to.

har har. That was just a back board to take a pic on. Have to do some more targets later. I first started with the 360gr Minie.

Good shooting. I may give them a try one day.

I agree, they don't look like they are stabilizing at all????

When i was taking pictures i noticed the hollow base seemed a bit deeper than the 300gr HP's i shot previously. I will have to measure that and see if it is or not.

SO when do they go up for sale?

I can handle the price on BH but every one has a point at which they feel its getting ridiculous and the Thor is beyond mine. They are an excellent bullet but way over priced.
