Shockwave results
« on: November 13, 2003, 08:53:07 AM »
Just returned from early muzzleloader trip in the delta country of south louisiana. I am shooting an encore 209x50 with 3 777 pelets and T/C's new shockwave 250grn sabots.  I had a cow horn buck step out at about 60 yards. The preformance of the shockwave was awesome! I new from the range the accuracy was there, but didn't know how its preformance would be on game. DON"T HAVE TO WONDER ANY MORE!!! The impact litterally knocked the deer off its feet, it did not take another step. the exit was massive bordering on overkill. The bullet hit a little high on the chest cavity, breaking the top of his ribs. Anyone considering the shockwave give them a try...
Keep your powder dry!!!

Opening day I shot a 125# 8 point buck, facing me at 175yds.  300 gr shockwave, 130 gr loose 777... actually knocked him back 10 feet, where he dropped like a stone.  I am very impressed with the shockwaves.
Men who feel strong in the justice of their cause, or confident in their powers, do not waste breath in childish boasts of their own superiority and querulous depreciation of their antagonists.
