    @Lucky what are you using them for? Would love to hear how they go on animals if that’s your use. They fly so well through my 308 and have loaded some to test out on some goats

    @G.I_Joel I have been using these for a few years now. Mostly deer at close range in the bush and few goats out at 200 but nothing has moved more than a few steps.
