I didn't say they don't work, I shoot them.
I haven't lost a deer with them but I am concerned with their 'frangible' properties
A muzzleloader's bullet should do two things.
First, It must kill.
Powerbelts do that with a well placed shot.
Secondly, a muzzleloader's bullet should leave a blood trail for those shots that are marginal.
Powerbelts DO NOT DO THAT.
They load wonderfully
They shoot accurately
I busted a nice six point last Saturday and expected a blood trail but got none!
Luckily I could see him laying a short distance away
Now the job is yours to put them in the right spot on your game.
Make certain that your shot is not 'marginal' if you shoot Powerbelts
Thanks, guys, for your comments
I wonder if Okie got an exit hole with that well-placed shot?
