I have been using Lehigh bullets for hunting ever since they came out and they are impressive. I use 140 gr. BH in the Endeavor and it has dropped every head of game I shot with it . I use 120 in the 45 because it has a Bergara barrel which does not test out as strong, but it also has shown excellent results.
Good questions Lee. The new Lehigh bullets are designed to shear the petals at lower velocities then the Bloodlines. Ill do the testing on that once i get the 40cal bullets. This way i can do them all at the same time.
I shoot the same loads as you. I shot a Doe at 405 yards a few years ago with the prototype 230grn Bloodline and the patals sheared and the Deer dropped were it was standing like 2 seconds after i shot it. That was with 140grns of Bh209.
