Bonded Shock Waves
 
Well I tried those bonded 250 gr.Shock Waves today, Shot a fouling shot and 5 for group at 150 yds got 1.5 inch which is the best I can do with a 2.5 power scope at 150. So they are shooting better than me. This was with volume measure. Which is why I like the course FF APP.
The gun was a Z5 Omega I picked up for 160 dollars when Wallyworld had them on sale.
The load was that course APP FF that I alone seem to love, 120 gr.
The other group [the big one] was 50/40 200gr Shock Waves I know they shoot best with 150 gr I was just trying to get them to shoot with a little less powder.
Comments,am ready for my may hog hunt. The new sabot that comes with the new bonded 250 Shock Waves loads like it was greased; one of those holes came from an unwiprd barrel I like to know what it will do if I have to load in a hurry. So what do youall think. Lee

I think them hogs better stay further then 150 yards away from you or they are in a world of hurt... Nice shooting. Those bonded shockwaves will be an interesting projectile on the hogs.. be sure and let us know how they did.

:D

cayugad, As long as the hogs co-operate I will do that.
I sure like the new sabot I hope they bond and use the same specs for the 50/40 200gr the load my gun likes is limping along at 2500 and that is a lot for an unbonded bullet in a copper jacket. Lee

AQUATECH,My Omega likes that load to,I guess I pick the Shock Waves for penatration and flat shooting,we will have to compare after we shoot one on how well they work. Lee

I really like those bonded 250 gr. shock waves. I have been shooting them with the APP Shokies Gold in FFF and I love the combo so far. If the stores will ever restock there powder I really want to try the FF stuff. Give them hogs hell for us too Mike
