I have shot, and I have seen animals shot with these bullets and I have never found one in an animal. They plow through no matter what angle. I saw my buddy shoot a buck in the right rear hip and it exited out his front shoulder.
How did you guys like the paper patched bullets as a whole. Did they go down the rifle ok? They were sized for my gun so I wondered how they worked.
Did you use the same powder charge for all bullets? Ron
Yesir Ron....those bad boys were awesome! Thanks for sending them to test! They were his top performer

They fit right down the barrel fine, and other than punishing my son when he shot them (LOL) were amazing. I really liked them and personally wouldn't hesitate using them on anything I would ever hunt. We did use the same 80gr load of pyrodex every time, for all bullets.

If you (or anyone else) want me to email you the spreadsheet, shoot me your email address via pm. It has all the data in one place.
