Just saw it in a Cabela's mag as well... I only shoot bore diameter bullets..... Think I'll try it.... But I'm very happy with my Power Belts....

nope i have not tryed them, i thin there was a post early muzzle on this bullet but not 100% sure

I've seen those too.  Look alot like the all copper thor bullets on the powerbelt site.  The thors are pretty impressive.  They will send you 4 free bullets to fit your barrel perfect before buying, .500, .501, .502, and .503.  My X-150  liked the .501, but I didn't end up buying any to shoot.  The hornady FBP will not prefit your barrel for ya, so either they fit or they don't.

I like the looks of them, but I wish they made them in 54 caliber.

The wife found a bunch of these on clearance at the local Walmart. She picked me up a bunch. The first time I went and shot them they shot great. That time I had forgotten the new 777 pellets i had picked up. So I used the pyrodex pellets that I had. The next time I went out I had the 777. That time I was all over the place.  Finally got fed up with it and went home. The next time I went out we couldn't get them to group with either the Black Diamond or the Bighorn. By this time I had ran out of pyrodex pellets, We ended up shooting all the FPB's. The next time we went out we shot some Hornady sst w/the ez-load sabots. The 777 pellets where still giving us fits. When ever why shot with loose 777 they shot great. Come to find out the 777 pellets are designed to be used with the 209 ignition. By the time we figured out all of this I was out of FPB's. I've though about getting some more but the SST's are working great so I don't think I'm going to switch. I've thought about getting some of the Barnes bullets. Good luck. My only recomendation is to not use 777 pellets.
