Can't find the 300g Deep Curl bullet that was recovered from the juice jugs, but after a little hunt, managed to find a picture of it. This is the 300g Deep Curl that was shot with the same load from the same distance into them 6 juice jug as the Barnes, Nosler, and 270g Deep Curl.

Well, that will leave a mark.
I can't say anything bad about a DC, because I haven't tried them. I guess I need to do that, or shut my pie hole. |

Ron,
Ok, it does show that water jugs and phone books are not a good indication of what a bullet will look like in an animal. I have to admit the DC may look better in an animal, because I know the Barnes does. I'll use this example that i'm sure FG has posted here. This is what sold my on the Thors. |

For what it might be worth... for you folks in Colorado I really do believe the Thor might be the best available lighter weight bullet for that country. Here in Idaho I am stuck with the full bore conical rule - so for me during ML season it is a .503-460 grain Bull Shop - which aint a bad projectile at all... If you could not shoot a Thor - then it would be my next choice in a heart beat....

I'm confused. We both have the same law for ML season. Full bore conicals.
We have to shoot a full bore and it must be all lead... We can not use primers at all - must be cap or flint lock We must have an open breech - so the Omega is out We must use loose powder - no pellets |

No crud ring and $.20 a shot. I'd love it. |
