Grains

Use / positioning
“Solid” for large/dangerous game when straight-line terminal travel and maximum depth are critical (quartering shots, heavy bone, thick tissue). Suitable for bolt actions and well-regulated doubles.

Design & terminal effect
Lathe-turned monolithic brass; 67% BBW#13™ meplat for exceptional straight penetration. 3 + 1 driving bands lower friction/pressure. No mushrooming—the solid shank retains mass and axis for a clean, very deep primary channel.
