Nope, only paper has been harmed so far.

I love this bullet on paper and for economy.

I've shot two deer and both went down. The first, I forgot to recover. The second was a close range pass through.

I would really like to see a test like we have for the Speer GD's to confirm terminal performance. I'll provide the bullets if anyone has the facilities. I don't have the Mic & scale to do a quality test.

The 300gr PT Gold didn't work in my Omega. Really lousy groups.

The 300gr Thors work really good, and will be my hunting load.

Funny, because TC told me my gun won't work with conicals.

What's up with the CR sabots in the pic? On my monitor, the grooves look diagonal as opposed to straight. New design?

I thought that too when I saw them.

they are straight. You are seeing the reflections of the primer box and the target in the background.
