Rex WahlVery pleased with Cutting Edge Bullets CNC machined copper bullet, 100 grains, in .257 Robert cartridge (my handload). Have not chronographed velocity yet, but is very near 2,900 -3,000 fps muzzle based on a previous lighter load.https://goo.gl/photos/z1aK9fpjw7bDtu6E8 |

Bullet hit rib on both sides. Exit wound low on chest was about 1 in. diameter. Deer took two steps and dropped. Deer remained standing on bullet hit, surprisingly. |

Thomas KitchenRe: 257 Roberts CNC Copper Bullethi Rexi have seen the cutting edge bullets mentioned a bit lately. they have high BC's but im little concern about hunters pushing them to far. have a watch of this and you'll start to see what i mean https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNYq-QeHEuw. sounds like you are having good results in close thou, hopefully you can get pictures posted. |

Rex WahlRe: 257 Roberts CNC Copper BulletI've been shooting muzzleloaders (ML) for deer and elk the last 30+ years. 2016 lucked into a rifle hunt, like the old days.... Many years of training for ML and I still concentrate on getting close. 2 weeks after this hunt, bagged a cow elk with inline muzzleloader in same location. Snow in AM, all morning stalk, 10 bedded elk at 100 yds. range. Shot one cow that stood for a few moments. 2 great hunts. |
