I have no need for a high BC bullet atm and even less of a need in the NULA. All the ML lottery hunts are pretty much still or blind hunting. The lower recoil will be a huge plus considering the NULA is only around 7lbs ready to hunt.

Scotty, the more I work with this bullet - the more I am impressed with it. I am a huge fan of the Lehigh/Bloodline 40x200 and even though this bullet performs ballistically right along with the 200 - it does have a slight edge.

For myself the accuracy has really been impressive and the best part I can use my lightweight Ultra Lite to shoot it...

Remember I am "old"

Sabotloader, Looks like fun! And good shootin!


It was FUN and relaxing!

This really doesn't show much cause it is only a 50 yard Chrono target but several bullets passed this way.

Ive always like 1 Barnes over most of the rest. The 225gr XPB and until now there was not another similar option except COP which can be hard to find. Them fancy pointy ones just are not needed in this case.

Low recoil, quick tissue displacement/damage and high probability of a pass though fill the bill just fine. I see no reason the 230gr wont do that. All the evidence ive seen sofar indicates it will do it pretty much all the time.
