hopefully they work well for you,Barnes really make the wee cartridge shine sub 150 yards....

It will be interesting to see how they fly .
The 57 gn ones are the business for bigger critters according to my advisors.
These projectiles do have a reputation for accuracy though and the company has made inroads into the extreme long range world .
