Default 300g Deep Curl--80g BH

This bullet wasn't tested before now, because it is currently unavailable for purchase. It has put several deer into our freezer. What i recall from hunting is the exit through the ribs is about 2" diameter, and deer go down quickly. This morning range was 26 yard. Powder charge was 80g Blackhorn






















This bullet flattened the front two jugs. The third jug had an entry and exit hole. The fourth, and fifth jugs were undamaged. The bullet took quite some time to find. It bounced hard off the fourth jug, and ended up 12-15 feet away to the side, and forward. It now weighs 301.3 grain.

Looks like a deceased painted insect or crawfish.

As much as I like slinging the big chunks of lead that bullet there looks GREAT!

that always has been one of my favorite bullets. They are accurate, and I normally shoot them with 90 grains of powder and they seem hard hitting.

MIA for too long now. No sign of their return to area stores anytime soon either. Speer seems to be against volume expansion of this product.
