No trophy, have'nt tried them yet!

People are using them inline muzzle loaders with success, go to the muzzle loading section and ask the same question, you may get more responses on that particular bullet. It's the same bullet that is in the shotgun shells, exept it will be 50 cal instead of .44 or .45.

It has everything to do with your question....

You asked if people had experience with them. If peopleare havinga hard time finding them, then obviously they won't be able to answer your question.

More importantly, many of the most knowledgable rifled shotgun shooters on this site have not shot them for exactly that reason. That means whatever answers you get may not be very representative of the shells true performance.

The bullet itself is unquestionably a proven solid performer, it has been used by muzlleloaders on thousands of deer. ( I shoot it out of mysmokeless muzzleloader as do many other Savage 10ml shooters.)

However I asssume you are interested in knowing specifically how it performs out of a shotgun. Well...unfortunatly because they are having production problems I don't have experience with them out of that gun. Neither do alot of other shooters who otherwise would....

Then you are still in the wrong forum if you would like to reach the largest approprate audience. If you want to know specifics or technicals on a bullets downrange performance, (even if it relates to a specific form of wildlife), you will get more response from either the reloading or gun forums....of course you willget some responses here, but experience shows that you will do better in the other forums...

I would also suggest that you rename your thread (specify that you mean Rifle performance).

Good Luck...
