Default Lever Revolution bullet 30/30

Has anyone here tried these. I would like to know about performance on game not accuracy.

Have taken close to 100 hogs with this round. Shooting it out of a Marlin 336c in .30-30. Hornady doesn't make the round in the Superformance version, but they have recently started manufacturing the Monoflex round which retains over 95% of it's mass and shears away in a flower pattern like a Barnes bullet. This is a great improvement over the older round which had a straight led core and while it does perfom great, did still fragment upon impacting certain substances, IE: Bone. My problem is I need to burn through the 6 boxes of the oler FTX rounds before I can go buy some of the newer Monoflex ones. Also though, the Monoflex rounds are $15.00 more expensive per box.

The LeverEvo's perfrom EXTREMELY well on hogs!!!!!

Used one on a big male Javelina last month. At 90 yards it hit where it was supposed to and tore a hole in in him going in and out. He went about three feet and fell over.
