I have 3. They all shoot about MOA with Barnes T-EZ and .45 plated lead. I killed two 10 days back with the Optima and two with the Kodiak magnum.

They're so simple there isn't much can go wrong.

Every deer I ever pointed one at is now dead because the bullet went right where I wanted it. I guess that's reliable.

FWIW mine use 66 grains by weight of Black Horn 209 and a Barnes T-EZ. Gets about 1700 and great accuracy. The four I shot this year all died in their tracks.

I like the Kodiak better, but the Optima works good too.


The FOUR you shot?

Where in MN are you hunting? 601?
