New kind of muzzleloader bullet at Walmart

[22LR]

I was at my local Wal-Mart and saw these. Whats your thoughts?

I believe similar bullets are loaded for semi automatic handguns already

See here:

Explain how they are non-expanding and give extreme energy transfer???

I just buy a box of 50, 300gr Hornady XTPs, bulk sabots, and go at it...

I've tried Shockwaves and Barnes in the past but found the XTPs do plenty and those 300s usually exit...

22LR Kinda reminds me of the ole fluted devel bullets from years back.

I suspect like powerbelts they'll shoot accurate but there will be issued with getting a blood trail.

going to stick with my XTP's 240 gr , you know the old saying don't try to fix something that ain't broke.

Can’t beat xtp... killed loads of deer with them. Always get a good blood trail

Agreed, I’ll stick with my 250gn shockwaves, they don’t leave the best of blood trails but are far more accurate than any others I’ve tried...... and with a high shoulder shot tracking is a moot point.

And I think I'll stick with my .490 patched round balls.

Looks like a spin off of the old Devel 175gr "Radial Dynamic" bullets I used to shoot way back around 1998 to 2003. It is still to this day the most accurate bullet I've ever shot out of any muzzleloader. Sadly, when Charlie Kelsey of Leved Cartridge Ltd. was murdered back in 2003 his bullet company and his handgun company died with him.

I'm sticking with my Powerbelts.

I agree, PowerBelts are accurate, but they are USELESS on deer as far as I'm concerned.
Blood trails= NONEXISTENT

I’ve heard a lot of negative remarks about power belts since they come out , and that’s all I’ve used since they been out never a problem , far as those new bullets , or others I never change up anything if what I’m using already works , but that’s with all my gear

My round balls have served me well over the years , no reason for me to change now.
