Loaded up a 100 rounds of this bullet with 14.5 grains of Blue Dot powder. Velocity is approximately 3200 fps.

I had the Winchester 46 grain HPs just sitting around for Lord knows how long. So I thought I would get rid of them by shooting them up.

What a pleasant surprise I got with this combo in the field.

Rifle was a Remington VSS, and to 300 yds, this round was deadly!

As far as performance, it turned each squirrel hit INSIDE OUT and sent them whirling like a helicopter about 2 to 4 feet in the air!

Going to have an order placed to Midway tomorrow for a 1,000 of these for starters. A Ruger only did mediocre with them, but the Remington sure loved them. I love the performance it gave on target!!!

The Coyotes around Bonanza Oregon will eat hardy tonight!

Cheers and Good shooting,
Seafire
