Raggedyman, I wonder what Prograde is loading them with? 
Did I send you any of the 45 Lyman 185 gr Devastator cast HP's?   ::)

I think so, but I haven't loaded anything in forever. I should load some up.

Thanks for sharing.  The Wolf 223 performance was pretty respectable.  Certainly better than I expected.

Nice. Results were similar to my test of the 10mm version. Still not sure how I feel about it, though.

Feel kinda conflicted about them as well.  I started out VERY skeptical about the whole concept; seeming to come to my attention on heels of the RIP Trocar BS.  Just as with the RIP overhype, the cost of these bad boys also stood out as pretty exorbitant and hard to justify....
On the flip side, every test (there have been quite few at this point) I've seen (from reputable people) of LEHIGH's CF have been pretty impressive. 
Impressive to the degree, I've broken down and bought a box in 45-70 (pigs) and 243 (deer) to try out on the next hunt.

Please be sure to document the results as best you can. I'm really interested in how the handgun calibers perform.

Dr. Roberts was not impressed:


QuoteSo they designed a bullet that purposely breaks into pieces, thus decreasing mass, potential maximum expansion, and resulting in a small caliber size core that over-penetrates.....ya, that is really smart.
