Thanks for the info Salmoneye, do you hunt with those loads?
I have only hunted Rabbits and Coyotes with the reduced cast loads...

If you do load and hunt with a 'pistol' bullet, just remember that the construction of the bullet will play a roll in performance on target...

If I was loading a 158 XTP to 1800fps, I'd choose the Flat Point over the Hollow point...

The FP is constructed to take 1800fps, where the HP may open too soon with little penetration at that velocity...

Gas checked cast will also hold together well for hunting at 1800+fps...
