Next time I go out and shoot, I'll stack some phone books together to see if I can recover the bullet.
I don't know. Something is wrong somewhere. I really wanted to like the PT. As it turned out. They weren't that accurate in my gun, so Max's test was the last nail it the coffin for me. If they shot good in my gun. I might look at Max's test a little closer.
I'm happier with the Thors anyway, because I can use them in ML season if i want to hunt that season.
