I shot both in my Knight Disc Elite and Extreme, using 110gr of BH209, Hornady's EZ load sabot and Winchester's regular 209 Primer. We have a lot of hogs on our W. Texas lease and that, plus the better down range retained energy of the 300gr. were factors in my decision to use the 300 for hunting. The bullets did their job, but expansion was inconsistent, and the bullet didn't hold together that well. Lots of bits and pieces. Switched to Harvesters 300 gr. PT Gold for last season. Same load except I use Black Crush Rib sabot. Extremely accurate and devastating performance
