Woops, I relooked at the photo again. I was shooting the 250gr FTX. I have to tell you, it was from my Game Breaker .450 Bushmaster. Bullet speed is 2,300fps and from that rifle, I've shot 1" 300yd groups.

However faster than we shoot from muzzleloaders, that bullet did unimaginable internal damage to a buck I took opening day. Very short run, maybe 30yds with blood as high as my head in the trees. Perfect entrance hole, exit hole was 1.25".
Now there's no doubt I'm a BarnesAddict but, if that bullet would do from a muzz like it did with that .450, things might change.
