Anyone have any experiece with this bullet, specifically in 222?

I use the 45gr XLC in my Hornet and have used it in my 222mag. Does this help?

I've shot two central tx's does with this bullet out of a 14.5" AR (.223). Both shots were less than 50 yards into the lungs broadside. Both exited. Terminal performance was on par with such a small bullet, and slow velocity (3000+ fps), unimpressive. However, it killed them both and neither ran more than 50 yards. They shot horribly out of my AR so haven't revisted them since using the last few up. On little tx deer a faster opening bullet might be more appropriate.

that does help. What have your results been with it?

Perry

My experience has been good, they are accurate and hit hard. It is the only bullet I use for coyotes in my Hornet. They seem to hit much harder than a regular 45gr bullet.

What questions do you have about them?

My main focus is on expansion and penetration. I'd like to shoot a bullet that will lay the smack down on yotes but still has enough penetration to shoot a pig behind the ear if the opportunity arises.

That would be an X bullet.

The few I have recovered have all expanded nicely and all weighed 45grs, (the starting weight).

For a .22 caliber, I don't think you can get a better bullet for large game.

i used them with benchmark in my .223 and shot a .250 group @100yds. never shot any game with one so cant coment on there performance.
