[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1921295, member: 103947"] From what I can tell, they offer that bullet in a 170 grain option for the .45 and 130 grain option for the .40. Getting 1200 fps may be tougher for a .45 ACP than getting the 130 to make 1200fps from a .40 S&W. Sounds like optimal bullet performance hinges on the 1200 fps minimum. I'd sure like to try them out in my 6" G20/ 10mm. Could easily get 1600 fps+ without getting too crazy. Being only 130 grains or even 170 and the design of the bullet, I'd prefer it for a hunting bullet shooting a relaxed animal much more so than a bear or charging hog. For that scenario, I'd want a bullet that drives deep thru heavy bone, skull etc simply because the shot placement may be more of an unknown. That 130/170 placed in the vitals (lungs, heart) would destroy and shred a massive wound channel and remove the vitals at the same time. Interesting looking projectile. [/QUOTE]
