Anyone use these? I just bought a CVA Wolf and read good things about the Barnes ML bullets.

I have been shooting the 300gr MZ Expander since the late 90s. There is no better bullet than Barnes for muzzleloader


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

I will be switching to those this year. Been saying for a while but finally just went out and bought some. The Hornady SST 300 grain shoot great but the blood trails can sometimes not be great. No problems yet but I'm switching before I have one.

I use them, the but the t-mz not the t-ez. They fly great, leave great blood trails and always exit. Great bullet IMO.

I bought the t-ez because I read reviews saying it was easier to load. I haven't been able to go shoot it due to covid-19. I'm anxious to see what it'll do.

My Dad and I both shoot TC Omegas. The t-mz shoot better in mine than the t-ez. In his, I'm not sure you could beat the t-mz down with a mallet. For that reason, we tried the t-ez and they shoot great in his gun.

I shoot them and produce best results I have seen out of muzzleloader. Shot hog from 150 yds, clean exit and dropped in its tracks. I was surprised. But quite happy. Never lost deer since I started shooting these.

Alittle late to the convo here but I use the 250’s

I’ve hit 4 or 5 deer with them and it absolutely hammers deer. I thought I missed the first 3 I hit with them But it turned out they already down by the time I could get my sight picture back after the recoil. I accidentally hit one in the gut at 150yds a few years back and it was easy to tell as it was running. Good blood trail to follow.

Get you some backhorn 209 to go with them.

P.s. all bullets suck to load in the muzzleloader, especially after a few shots without a bore brush in between.
