Basically, they took the black paint off and called them Winchester Ranger SXTs.

That's what they did with the rifle calibers. Excellent bullet when you could get them to shoot well. :tup:

I'll take a box of 100 for my G20

The bulk of the slug is continuing well beyond the pedals flaring out. 

That would jelly the insides of a dangerous animal, if your aim was a bit off one or two pedals might get in the heart or shred the lungs.



I'd like to see more tests not put on by the producers of the ammo.  Wrap a hog in a leather coat and see what it does.

If you ride the buses in Seattle it wouldn't take long to see first hand what these bullets would do to a scum bag.

What platform are you shooting them out of? I was at the range one day shooting a mini and one of the guys there wanted to sell me a bunch of ammo he bought because they were jamming on him. His gun smith told him to sell his ammo to a mini owner because a mini will shoot anything. That ammo he was selling were steel casings.  :dunno:

The rifle version of the Black Talon was essentially a cross between an old style X bullet and a partition. Solid copper hollow point with a lead core inserted into the shank and a steel plug to hold the core in. I was running them as component bullets in a 338-06 and 338 Win Mag.
