This bullet didn't work well without sizing for me.
Probably will use the 150 grain gold dot instead and save the 123 gold dot for AK.

Went out and shot them today, ladder all the way up to 18.4 gr of H110 (higher charge than for my 125 gr TNT loads) and didn’t have any pressure issues at all.

I’ve decided, I need a Chrono of some sort. I’m leaning toward a Labradar.

Bump, I’ve killed 2 hogs with these bullets now. Accurate and decently hard hitting.

I wonder if I can push them hotter, but I spent my $$ on a progressive instead of a Chrono.

I was planning on cutting into the hog to find the bullet (as it was a front on shot just left of the spine from my perspective), however I had a terrible stomach ache and didn’t have the opportunity.

These are linked, because I can’t put them into the post due to their size.
