I am also a new member here. I have used these for the last several years. I have shot 15 deer with them. I have never lost one. None of them went over 50 yards. All but one of them was shot through the chest. The last one the bullet broke both shoulders and was found under the hide. This is the only one of these bullets that I have ever recovered. A friend weighed it for me and it still weighed 195 grains.

The only way you will know if they shoot good for you is to shoot them.

I use a 100 grains of Pyrodex RS out of a CVA Wolf. My groups are about 1 1/2 inches at a hundred yards.

Not trying to ruffle feathers just my experiences. By the way a friend just gave me a box of .430 240 grain xtps for Christmas will be using them for a while.
