HORNADY FPB 350GR
« on: August 30, 2009, 04:11:42 PM »
Shot a few of these yesterday out of my T/C Black Diamond. These are the non-saboted, copper-jacketed bullets. Seemed to shoot fine. Fed down the barrel snug but smooth. Thinking of using for elk this year.
Has anyone else tried these?

There was a thread a while back and a couple of people were having problems with them.  I haven’t tried them myself and don’t plan to.
