Chap,
Thanks for the info and I will be looking threw it. So far I have noticed that the Shockwave shot better then the SST however are they not the same bullet? Very interesting to see that maybe they really are not the same bullet just made by the same company. Great Info to get started.

Yes, the SST and the SW are the same bullet, just different color of the ballistic tip. I have had the same experience, the SW shot better. The SST were way too tight in my BP inline rifles. There were OK in my Savage, but the SST shot better, see this for the SW:

shot in my Savage.
SST shot out of my BP rifles a few years ago:

I love the topic of bullet performance, andin paticular thebullets that do "boom flop" well.
