We find that the Triple Shock bullets require even a bit more powder than the XLC's in the rifle that we tested with. One consideration is that you need lots of neck tension, we were shooting compressed loads and the bullets were slipping outward a bit.
Accuracy is excellent, right at or under 0.5" in the Mike Rock barrel we use. Velocities are just a bit higher than standard X bullets. We killed several deer and did not recover any bullets but the exits were significant (2-3") and lots of internal damage. Longest kill was 710 yards on a mulie doe.
Here are some actual drops - there are a couple of wonkie numbers but this is what we got when we fired the bullets previous to a hunt.
First numbers are distance, second is actual drop, third is inches of drop from the previous distance. We rounded this off a bit and made a MOA drop chart and he killed deer very nicely with this info. Can't explain the 575 number, guess the bullet floats upward a bit at that distance
Accuracy was exceptional during this test, we shot three-shot groups and the rifle stayed right at 1/2 moa, except at 625 where the group was under 1.5". Charge was Varget, BHA brass, Win. primers, O.L. 2.830"
