Not really. I can shoot 2"groups at 200yds with a 250grn XTP in a T/C Triumph all day long. My NULA is actually better. Everybody has there specific thing they like to do. My goal is to have a good bullet out to two hundred yards or so. If i'm going on a big game hunt and the shooting is over two hundred yards i'm probably going to take a centerfire.
I have shot Deer and Turkey over 275yds with a Muzzleloader. You and Chuck Witnessed this. Is that good practice all the time???? A 10mph cross wind will move a 300grn Barnes original alot at 300yds. The Barnes has a very good BC. Check the numbers on my 150grn 7MM-08 with the same wind at 300yds. A big difference.
Most Deer all over the world are shot at 100yds or less. Whats the best bullet? Hornady will tell you they have terminal performance issues on game. That's very obvious to me. Thats why they keep changing the bullet.
The 250grn XTP, The 275grn Parker Ballistic Extreme, and The 220grn thru 300grn DeadCenters have no issues on game at there reccomended velocities. We all know this.
So far the Lehigh bullets are very accurate and the construction and design looks very well. The key to this bullet will be how it does on game. The gel test is a start. In the field results are the best results. A few hogs, about 10 or so Deer we should see how they perform.
I make absolutely nothing to shoot these bullets. I buy them to see how they work so other people will have some idea of what they are getting. He sent me the 40caliber bullets for free. I will report honest results out of a 45caliber ML and a 50cal this weekend. If it's good you will know. If it's bad, you will know that to.
If JJ wants to test them in the gel, i have no problem sending him 200grn bullets to try as well. He knows my number.
