Best bullet on the market!!!!!!!(12/11/2014)
I have shot these bullets for the last 10+ years and they are by far the best shooting bullets for the smoke pole hunter.Of the 20+ deer I have shot with the mz expander only 2 have stayed inside the deer, and both retained 99-100% of its original weight. Great exit wounds and very little tracking involved if any. If you have never shot these you owe it to your self to try them, I shoot them with 100 gr of triple 7 pellets and get a consistent 2 inch 3 shot group at 100 yards. I don't know how they would shoot with heavier powder charges due to never trying. And they are tight when loading due to the sabot.
Best MZ bullet I have ever used.(16/12/2015)
I have used these bullets in my 50 cal. MZ for many years. They are super accurate and deadly. I shoot them in my Thompson Center Black Diamond. I will not shoot any other bullet in this rifle. I use 100 grains of Pyrodex behind them and have no trouble taking and making 100 to 150 yard shots.
Great performance(05/07/2018)
I hunt whitetail deer with the Barnes 45 cal sabot. 45 cal are becoming hard to find. They harvest deer just fine. The design of controlled expansion is great. I used last year to harvest a 150 pound (field dressed) 10 point from 75 yards. He walked a few yards and was done.
