Thanks for the data and test results. I think I am going to stick with the 220gr. I'd rather have a 220gr going 1,050 than a 240gr going 875.

I've tested 220gr Matchings to a hair over 1500fps in a 16'' gun with 1680.

I'm not able to spot the undesirable aspect making them a 2nd or blem. My main concern was the diameter and the 20 or so I mic'd were good.

I had them sitting in my cart at .27 cents for a couple days. Finally went to make a buy last night, and they had dropped further. Forced to...

Price dropped. Probably a good time to stock up, they'll go fast at .23 cents.

Put yourself in the shoes of a sales person who has to actually has to say that number out loud to a customer.

Subs don't hit the water hard enough to deform, so they're able to punch way farther than you would think. I wasn't able to catch the 220 sierra pro hunters or matchkings in my standing water barrel... which was 22'' across - they zipped clear through every time when loaded at sub speeds. Even the 1...
