Default RE: Powerbelt email

ORIGINAL: frontier gander

Now if we could get these Magnum charging guys to cut back their powder, they'll start having success with a powerbelt and leave massive blood trails like the one i got with the 225 aerotip.

The only way that will happen is if 1) there are massive complaints and 2) they respond to the complaints with "shooting instructions for PB" on the package. Since they has so large a market share of the ML bullet market and the trend is toward long range shooting, they will NOT do that for fear of cutting into sales. So, the only way things will change is for people like you and me and other are to tell people how to shoot them. I believe their product support specialist said the correct thing, but I don't think most people know about their fragmentation. They just shoot them year to year, loose a deer or so a year and never give it a thought, until something happens like what happen to CamoCop and started the PB thrad that turned into a "terminal bullet performance thread":

It actually has had one of the most hits on this forum before it played it.Anyway, we will see this over and over and over again on this forum because of their fragmentation issues at high speed.
