Really no need to use pistol bullets in muzzleloaders anymore. Plenty of good ML bullets to use

No complaints here either. I shot a legitimate 200 lb 10 point broadside at 75 yards through both lungs and out the other side. He went about 50 yards and piled up. I was shooting these over 80 gr of Pyro P with a light blue Harvester CR sabot.

Pistol bullets still work fine for the whitetails I hunt. I still haven't had a chance to hunt for the ones with the armor plating yet.
I use 300 gr XTPs in my .50s and 200 gr XTPs in my .45 and haven't had a failure yet. Plus they are super accurate in my rifles.

true, the armor plating has been a growing issue in the US over the past 5 years or so.

I shoot plenty of XTPs, however, I have not used them to Harvest Game.

At $22 a hundred they are great at the range. Accurate, easy on the shoulder and perfect for gaining trigger time while you bring it to zero. I also use them in. 40/50 sabot for the same purpose in 50s,

Great load for beginners loaded light.

TripleSeven you told me you had some .45 cal bullets on another thread that is now locked but I am unable to send you a message.

My PM option in my personal profile is checked / enabled, so it should be working. Click on my screen name here and PM'ing should be listed there.
Yes, I have those 40-cals I listed, plus some 44/45-cal 180 gr XTPs / 285 gr. Buffalo SSBs if you want.
