Default RE: Lehigh Makes One For All States.

cayugad, The savage has a 24" barrel. That was one of the reasons why i used it. The other was because it has a 1/24 twist. The Knight Vision is 1/28 twist. I don't think anyone would have any issues at all with 110grns of 777 with any of the bullets.

80grns of 777 is like two pellets i believe. I really don't know the answer to that. I have no reason to believe there would be a problem at all.

As far as meat damage??? I would say a 3" to 4" circle is fair. Maybe a pound of meat would be a guess. Not much at all in my honest opinion. If you hit the animal right, that's all ground meat anyway. Very easy to cut that out either way. The petals that sheared stayed in the chest cavity and caused all the internal damage and a fast humane kill. Remember, i saw a Pig gut shot and it went 15 or 20yds and died instantly. No second and third shots needed and it died very fast.

The design of the bullet is superior. The people who use it will see it. The one's who don't wont. The Lehigh is not another Mushrooming bullet. The bullet is designed not to mushroom. It's new Technology to make it simple.
