Grains

Use / positioning
Solid for demanding large/dangerous game when straight travel and depth are critical (quartering shots, heavy bone, thick tissue). Suitable for bolt actions and properly regulated doubles.

Design & terminal effect
67% BBW#13™ nose has proven to give the deepest penetration in internal tests. 3 + 1 driving bands lower friction/pressure. Non-expanding shank keeps mass and axis for a dead-straight wound path.
