I do know, that I've shot/shoot the 250xtp at 1750'ish fps from my FA 83 and it's extremely accurate and thumps deer pretty hard. [/quote]

I USED A 250 XTP AT AROUND 1,750 fps ON A 1991 SAFARI BUT IT WAS WAY TOO FRANGIBLE ON LARGER PLAINSGAME SUCH AS KUDU AND RED HARTEBEEST. AS I HAVE PREVIOUSLY POSTED, I HAVE USED THE 250 XTP AT AROUND 1,550 fps AND IT WAS DEVASTATING ON EXOTIC DOES.

"ADAPT OR DIE". I USE ALL CAPS, NOT BECAUSE I AM YELLING, BUT BECAUSE IT IS AN OLD HABIT FROM MY ARMY DAYS, PLUS IT IS EASIER TO TYPE AND READ.
