CBB-

Don't get me wrong. I absolutely love the design of your MKZ and the fact they shot great in my initial testing was a plus. I actually had some loaded up for deer hunting last fall, but didn't have any luck.

Consumers are going to look at all the offerings before settling. It's just part of the selection process.

I invite people to look at all the offerings.
We have a clientele base that is constantly growing.
Once people try them they come back for more.
They are not plinking bullets, we know this, they were not designed to be.
High quality monolithic bullets are the more costly option.
In your case you have not seen the performance on game first hand.
I sincerely hope you get a chance to do so.
We are just saying give them a shot (pun intended) Smile

It is a very old thread…for monolithic I tend to go lighter weight. I killed three deer and a coyote with the 105 MKZ. (I posted results in another thread) I dug the coyote bullet out of the dirt and it opened and performed as advertised. Damage on the deer was as i expect from a rifle. Nice large exit hole.

I'm ordering the 105s...

I gave the 118 gr cavity backs a try this year with inconsistent results. One I’m pretty sure the bullet shed some pedals and basically shotgunned a deer internally. The other the bullet punched in and out with minimal damage. My sample size is small, but I’m scared to keep using them given what I’ve seen so far. I want to go lead free, shoot deer to 400 yards so very interested in finding a load I’ve got confidence in.

I have loaded and hunted with both the 105s and the 118s. Also a friend of mine in TX who guides hunts has used the 105s with great results. I am partial to the 105s for the 6.5 Grendel. I am now doing load development with the 118s for my 6.5 Creedmoor and I think they will make a fine hunting bullet for where I am at in NC, may even take them out to TX for an Axis later this year.
