Thanks GM - but shooting both his 350s and his 465s, they both shot the same. But the difference in impact was significant. You could hear the 465s hit the dirt pile behind the target with a very audible thump and you could see a much bigger cloud of dust than any of the other bullets.
I like that bone crushing power of a heavy bullet.
