Carlos has them ordered. I'll wait for that. Although I got the Barnes T-EZ today, and they fit perfect, so I just might stay with those, and kiss off the muzzy season. I'll just hunt the rifle seasons, and then I won't get hassled over using a scope.

They don't expand like a Barnes. The Barnes will expand down to 1200fps.
The Federal bullets were tested on Jon'r forum. I'm a little fuzzy on the details, but at normal 100-150yds they expanded fine. At 250yds they didn't expand at all. I believe the load was 110gr of BH 209.
However, this was the first run of the bullets. Something might have changed in the construction since then. They did have a delay in production, so who knows if they changed something?
