I shoot them out of my T/C Hawken. My load is 85 gr. of 2f goex. I don't have a chrono., but my guess is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1200-1300 fps.

My dream is to one day get to Colorado and shoot an Elk with my sidelock. I ordered the big 460 gr. conicle with that in mind. When they came in the mail several years ago I was suprised at the consistant accuracy I got with them, and it has become my primary hunting load. So far, I have shot two whitetail with them. The big bullet punched through the deer with just about the same ease as it does a target on a piece of cardboard.
