They are really good but i recommend trying the lighter 275gr first. The largest 325gr can be harder to stabilize because its long. They usually need a near max charge for best accuracy.

In a 54cal the Speer 300gr and 325gr 50cals in a MMP 54x50 sabot are hard to beat for the money. Rainier 335gr HPs are also really good and cheap.

Hard to beat 100 bullets for $28.

Alexander Arms uses this exact same bullet in their 50 Beowulf ammo at around 1900fps.
