Nato.......I did have a stake in the bullet. I even ordered a bulk shipment of the PT. It wasn't accurate when I first shot them. I would have worked with them to see if I could make them work. As long as I was happy with the terminal performance.

Once I saw Max's picture and did some asking around. I bailed on them.

Actually, I bailed after shooting the Thors. I saw no reason to mess with the PT's anymore. Make no mistake though. I wanted the PT's to work for me.

The PT Golds dont shoot that great in my optima but i know enough to realize that a simple sabot swab will take care of the job.

225gr powerbelt shot into my wet sand mixture.


Recovered from Deer.

If I had been able to get the Barnes TMZ's to shoot accurately out of my Omega, I don't think I would have even looked at the PT Golds. If you have any of those PT Golds leftover and you wanna get rid of 'em, I'll gladly take 'em off your hands. :)

By the way, who is Max, what's his blog address and what's his handle on this forum? Thanks.

Try the TEZ's,if you can't get the TMZ to shoot.the .250 TEZ out of my Triumph are tack drivers. Ray

Scratch that. I tried the TEZs. Maybe I should try the TMZs :) I'm really interested in the Deep Curls but last time I ordered from MidSouth, they weren't in stock and I hate to order just ONE thing over the 'net.

Thanks, MD.

BTW, cool pics from both you and Sabotloader.

I know FG. Yet, we've both seen a PB broken up like the picture of the PT that Max showed.

What conditions caused this? I think in the case of the PB it's too heavy of a load at close range. Is there a condition that makes the PT do the same thing?

I agree in your case of a loose sabot you can get it to shoot better. The CR sabot that comes with the PT fit my barrel perfect, and it's one of the best sabots. I don't think i'd have gained much by messing with sabots. I did shoot 90-100-110 gr of BH with no help.

Oh well.:confused0024:
