Used them at 3/4 load rate around 2500 fps and they worked well on rabbits, deer, javelina and hogs. This velocity allowed me to keep the same sight setting as my 250 grain loads is the reason why I stopped there. I feel like Elmer Fudd and his bazooka when hunting rabbits with it. Head shots only if you want to eat them.

"When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred." Niccolo Machiavelli
