This morning an attempt was made to catch this bullet. It veered off, and went out the left rear corner of the fifth jug. The sixth jug, was left intact. The load was 80g Blackhorn, the errant bullet, green crush rib sabot, and W209 primer. The first three jugs were severely damaged; the fourth jug was left with a bad bad leak. Seemed like i hunted for the bullet for about an hour. Out 46 yard, i found two missing bullet from last summer, but never did find this bullet.

She went out looking for eggs, more jugs, and a pizza.

She came home with more water jugs; allowing another attempt to catch the bullet.

Not bad really.

Do you remember how the Speer 270gr compared?

Looks good / held up well enough. First time I've seen those in 265. Bulk boxes of these near XTP pricing, should go on a recommended list.

Scott, the 270g Deep Curl was never shot through this test using carpet & plywood in front of water jugs. However i have shot it into water jugs before, and successfully caught it. The Deep Curl doesn't fly as well as the 265g FTX. The Deep Curl retains weight better than the FTX. The Deep Curl is unavailable for purchase.
