Field tested it on a 125 lb doe this afternoon.Shot her through the lungs at 160 yards and was well pleased with the result. Ran about thirty yards and an excellent bloodtrail. 42 grains H4350, Federal 210M, .100 off the lands.

H4350 may not get the love Varget does but it flat works.


Only hits count.

Are you having good luck with RL17 ? I got really good velocity with RL17 but had some weird misses on really cold days.

R17 may be a temperature sensitive powder.

Naw it's been just fine for me. Not had any issues. But I sight in/shoot in the cold months to insure any anomalies are found.
