Yvonne Rees –
Used this bullet in a .618 rifle for hunting large game. The penetration was excellent and the bullet maintained a straight path through thick hide and bone. No expansion, which is exactly what I needed for reliable performance.
Peter Wilkins –
Good consistency in performance. The bands help keep the barrel clean and reduce fouling after multiple shots. Works well in my heavy-duty rifle setup for dangerous game hunting.

Highly satisfied with the quality and reliability. The 900gr weight provides good energy transfer, and the straight-line penetration is consistent across shots. Very effective in dense terrain.
