| Has the Unicor let you down in some way or are you planning on hunting something tougher and thicker than usual? |

| Would be used primarily for Moose(if I don't fill my archery tag), I shot one last year with Remington factory load. Couldn't judge performance as it was a close range shot right between the lookers...
I think I will be FINE with the 300 UniCor, just curious as to if anyone had tried them and if they were worth the extra cost?? |

| Why not try both and let us know? And as a fellow archer I hope you get every chance to collect your moose with sharp sticks. Good hunting! |

| I don't think the A frame would be worth the extra money at all. I have used the Hornady XTPs in my 444. I use the 300 grain XTP in the field exclusively.
With a 44 bore, in this country, I don't think there is any game that it is too small for except maybe an attacking irritated grizzly. Then a 20mm cannon feels on the small side.
Cheers and good shooting

I agree! A couple of years ago I did a test using pine boards (soaked in water prior to shooting them) spaced 1" apart. I used the Sierra , Speer and Horny XTP all 300 grains. The 300 gr XTP was the most devastating, penetrated more and retained the most weight....even though it is a HP. |
