Tried them out when they first went on sale. Disappointed with accuracy out of Marlin and 10/22. If I recall correctly, it claimed Stinger-like velocity.

The rapid fragmentation claimed may work on nuisance birds at close distances but thereafter its just another overpriced novelty round.

My JW15 likes them, and anything I shot with them got real dead. I actually thought they were 4 segments, I must check again.
As an interesting side point, I found that when I was euthanising cows, solid points don't work, I tried target ammo and even some solid point tracer. Hollow points worked better, and the segmented ones were best.

Shot the supersonic 42gr American powerpoint today at 100y , accuracy wasnt terrible considering the wind.

The old orange packet Winchester Power Point was the shit. I always thought it wounded disproportionately for 22lr. Seen a mate drop goats and a small pig with it and was pretty surprised when we skinned them.

Yep. Those are the ones I was referring to earlier. They certainly lived up to their name.

Yikes! Using Windows 10 I just hit Winkey + Shift + S.
And take it from there.

I either paste the snip into a Word doc (handy if capturing several images) or save the original as a jpeg, or Ctrl P and save using Windows pdf creator to a pdf file.

Previous computer had Snag-It installed which was good.

Re the posted image I have captured it already but using a Samsung Tablet and pen. I just held the pen on the image and from the options that came up I selected "save". Only trouble is the saved image is only low res (116KB) and may not print the best. Have yet to try it.
Likewise screen capturing the image. If it's low res to start with the screen capture has no way of improving that.

Bloody desk jockey's .......

The reason I offered the above solution is that it will work on any item you have on screen, even if that is a paused YouTube video that you want to cut and paste as a jpeg. Its a very useful tool to have in your arsenal.

@Kopua Cowboy, my bad, yes the base is indeed the 4th segment. The front three 'petal' segments remind me of the three nose bits in a drill chuck.

Test-fired 22LR CC1 Velocitor (40gr 1435fps) out of two 10/22s and achieved repeatable 10 rd one ragged hole groups at 25m. Achieved slighter tighter groups than either CCI Standard or CCI MiniMag. This was a surprise.

CCI Velocitor is pricey at $19 per 50. Will stick with more affordable CCI Standard and CCI MiniMag as they are more than adequate for intended purpose.

They haul ass then! HV 40gr 138 ft/lbs and Velocitor 183 ft/lbs. Not to be sneezed at.
