Shot this young hog tonight with my .257 AirForce Condor using one of Ranch Dog’s designs. Made the shot at 115 yards. This little guy was 28” for reference. [Linked Image]

Good on you, very impressive! I designed that bullet for the 25-20 Win and it is great to see these designs being used with the airguns!

Some designs fall apart at sub-sonic speeds. Predictable accuracy in one bullet above Mach 1 may not be there once you get below the speed of sound. I have tried probably 6 different designs and always come back to this one. My gun is tuned to spit these out right at 1000 fps base on my Chrony. The bullet passed through the neck and spine creating a hole the size of my index finger. The bullet was logged under the far side skin and moved 3" away from the exit channel.

Did you get the mold from NOE?

Yes sir, they keep taking my money hammer Next up is a .308 Texan. So I guess NOE will be getting some more of it. What amazes me is the expansion it creates at that distance. Erik at Hollow Point Molds made the HP pins. Both NOE and Erik do top notch work.
