Versatile ESP Raptor™ 130-gr: run it tip-off (HP), tip-on with the supplied Raptor™ tip for higher BC, or flip it and shoot as a solid for extreme penetration. Instead of mushrooming, it sheds 6 blades after 1–2″ while the base tracks straight. Minimum impact: ≥ 1,500 fps. Required twist: 1:11″ or faster (not recommended in barrels faster than 1:6″). Includes 50 uninstalled Raptor™ tips (install by press or light flat-surface pressure).
