Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed for varmints under 50 lbs, so it is not intended as a general-purpose bullet for larger game.
  • The 100-grain, high-velocity design emphasizes rapid fragmentation, which is a trade-off if deeper penetration is the priority.
  • Its match-style aerodynamics and performance features may be more than needed for simple plinking or basic practice use.
  • Box count is 100, so it is a bulk purchase rather than a small trial quantity.
