It must be a heavier construction than the lighter versions. 50gr of powder is not enough for it.

Thanks for the testing Ron. After a visit to Lehigh and talking about this bullet it is working properly. It's constructed more for dangerous game. The petals won't shear as easy as the lighter Bloodlines do. This being said I'm going to work on a different bore size bullet for Colorado. Thanks again!!
