CFE223 will get the most velocity with the lowest pressure and produce excellent accuracy


I've got some of that too, thanks. Have either of you compared it head to head against leverevolution?

I have. It's been awhile, but the LVR was faster and accuracy was similar or a bit better in my gun.

Thanks man, and thanks for the link. I checked the website yesterday, not sure how I missed that.

I assume those 160 FTXs work just as well as other bullets on deer?


A wise man is frequently humbled.
