Default RE: Powerbelt Wants your emails

Well, to be honest, me and my family have harvested about 4 dozen deer with 45cal PowerBelts Never lost a one Most shots 30-70 yards.

We've settled on the 300g Platinum with 60g of your favorite powder. Magic speed seems to be 1350fps. Good from 20 to 120 yards. Plows right through every time. 1.5 -2 inch groups at 120yards.

In this Pic, ONLY the far Left(275g) and far Right(300g) are acceptable expansion for me. These were recoved at 120yards, fired into damp sandy clay. 60g of Goex Pinnacle 3Fg. The others are 120g Pinnacle...And WAY over expanded[:'(]




Here they are flipped over. The 2 on the far left, 300g Platinum, then the 275 copper clad:




Another angle...Which ones would you trust to perform??? Remember this was at 120yards....





If you don't over-drive them, they will perform great....shoulder shot or double-lung
