PowerBelt® Platinum Bullets

[Guest rebelyell1972]

What has anyone heard of how good or bad these new bullets are? Will they hold up? Are they accurate? I have been considering switching from the sabots I've been using. Thanks

I have been using Powerbelt bullets for a couple of years. Very accurate bullet. My cousin, who also shoots powerbelt, and I did have a small problem with them. That was little or no expansion on a short yardage shot. We both were shooting the copper series, 195 grain with 100grains of Triple 7 powder. Both shots were in the 35-40 yard range and we got complete pass thru with no expansion. Both deer died but we had to track them farther than we should have. On longer shots I have gotten great expansion. Overall I like powerbelt.

That is what I use with the Pyrodex Pellets (2 pellets at 50 grains each), and I have had great success with them....so far.
