Has anyone tested these in any media or any game? What were your findings? Thanx

I've loaded them in a .375 Weatherby and shot them into a wet clay bank at 100 yards . This is a tougher medium than wet magazines and such . They hold together and retain right at 60 % of original weight .

Then it did really well! Did they pancake or look like textbook? I will shoot them in my 378 WBY Mag....see if (I hope) she likes them!

They formed a nice mushoom , albeit there is not a real long shank left like a Barnes X would have .



The bullets I recovered weighed 160 to 165 grains and have an expanded frontal diameter about 0.7 inch .

Man that is good performance, or at least promising. Hope my 378 Mag likes them! 2" or less at 200 yards and I am done!
