That's with 120grns by volume of BH209.

No wonder they do so much damage, its like a brick hitting them at 2000fps :s3:

You would be surprised at the accuracy I have seen in some "bricks" :s2: My Keith style SWC's are dang near the most accurate bullet I have shot out of my .45 LC's. Within the normal ML'er ranges (to around 150 yards nowadays) BC doesn't really count for a whole hell of a lot. I would have to imagine that the XP bullet is fairly accurate to around that. If it wasn't, you could bet the military surely wouldn't have contracted for them. The .458 SOCOM (what this bullet was originally designed for) is a 200 yard and under firearm. And 200 is getting a good stretch on your abilities.
