Now, a question we have about the shockwave photo's you posted.

Are they photo of a 200g bullet, and therefore relevant?


Look, if you want me to say the Barnes is a good bullet, i will.... Barnes are good bullet, i would use them anytime, any day.

As I stated on the other post, the SW I believe were both 200gr bullets, where the SST I'm pretty sure was a 250gr bullet.

Nope, you don't have to say Barnes is a good bullet. I didn't bring up Barnes until after the photos were brought forward.

What I'm saying is, the SW bullets are controversial with some shooters. I shot the 200gr SW from my Encore rifles VERY accurately and had one heck of a time recovering whitetail. That same season I immediately switched bullets after that fiasco.
