Curious of people's experience with these? What caliber, velocity, and results down range. Eventually want to run these in a suppressed 20" 7prc. Is 3000+ MV a reasonable expectation?
 
I tried them in a savage 280 AI I put together. Got the action cheap and had never tried a savage before. Shoots good. I believe I used H100V for around 3150-3160 FPS out of a 24" IBI 1-7.5" twist. No on game experience. My thinking was it would be a good tree stand bullet for deer?
 
I have some in transit. Curious if anyone has any first hand experience with terminal performance? You gotta love the description on their website, "dramatic impacts" 😂
 
I almost decapitated a raccoon with a .17cal running 4925FPS at 125 yards with Dead Blow. It was foreward shot. Hit just at base of neck.
The first Coon was perfect broadside. Could barely see entrance or exit. Took 10 paces and died.
