the Shockwaves shoot great out of my Omega and my Rem700. I've only shot one deer with them, a doe. It was one of the 250's and it passed through but left some evidence of fragmentation, If I get any more I think it will be the bonded variety and I would like to try some with the crush ribs. Of course if the Gold Dots, SW and Expanders all shoot well with them I'll be perplexed about what to hunt with. As far as the lost velocity I'm not really concerned about that when I'll mainly be using them for reloading after shooting a deer, hog whatever. I ALWAYS reload just in case and I'd rather shoot a $0.50 bullet in the dirt versus a $1.00+ bullet.
