Gleason, What powder and how many grains did you shoot with those gold dots and at what distance? Those look sweet. Thanks for sharing, Greg
This was shot from a TC FlintLock lock with 80g of FFF Goex, crushed rib sabot, sight in at 50 yards. The petals on the crushed rib are strong, not thin, the bonding of the bullet to the lead is verygood and well done, it doesn't separate from the bullet core. The Hollow point is deep and expands rapidly and well. In my mind it is an excellent ML bullet at a very resonable price, $16 for 50. I have 50 Nosler Partitions 300g HG PP left, I will use them this year in my Omega and Knight, but I will switch to the Gold Dot when I am done with that box. Sabotloader gave me the tip onSpeer Gold Dot, and his recommendations are alwaysright on target.
Chap Gleason
