But they size nicely for the smokeless demon spawn and I have a screaming load for them. They just don't shoot well past 200 yards. 200 and in I can cover the group with a quarter. At around 250 it's starting to shotgun. But it is a rare even that I have a shot past 200 on whitetail anyway so that will be fine.
Correct the .451x230 - I tried the .452x240 in the Renegade and it did not stabilize...

Remember to look at Midway for them - they are cheaper and free shipping the last time I looked...
