Has anyone tried these? Wondering if they blow apart when they hit something other than wet media (bone and muscle). I want to try them squirrel shooting, but need to be responsible.

I am working up some loads in both .17 and .20 cal, for future non lead use. Have not tried them yet on a critter, but from what I see and read on them, they should separate and come apart on impact or very short entry. You will never know until you try them on a squirrel or such. So far they seem to be accurate enough in my rifles. Bill K

I'll be getting my order on Monday. These guys are the real deal when it comes to engineering a bullet for a specific purpose. I have not used any of their bullets on game yet, but I purchased some for my ML, my 308, and also for my .40 Cal hand gun. Good to know they shoot straight so far. I'll work up some loads and share what I find.

I checked out the website and some of the reviews on YouTube, looks like some radical bullets. On the website there is loading data for a select few rounds, I did some minor research and it is recommended to cross reference with a bullet of the same weight...is that where you guys have started

I have started slightly lower in load date/charge, as we are cautioned to do with the copper/solid bullets i.e. Barnes, etc. and worked up, using the same bullet weights. Bill K
