My T\C Impact loved the .452" 250 gr. XTP over 95 grs. by volume of Blackhorn 209. Using the Harvester Crush Rib in black. True sub 1" groups at 100 yards. Problem was the bullets blew up on shoulders and ruined a lot of meat. I switched to the 300 gr. non magnum XTP and cut the powder charge to 85 gr. and all is good again. My big timber short range whitetail are hammered by that combination and I get exits without too much wasted meat.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
