I'd read WFN's can't shoot accurately below 1200 fps, and I'm sure the internet would say a .480 can't stabalize a 460 gr bullet. Yet in my 480 SRH I was getting 1" groups at 50 yds with a 460 gr WFN crossing the chrono at 1050 fps. I sent some of them to a fellow 480 shooter who loaded them up to 1100 fps in his 480 and took them to the linebaugh seminar in ~2004. In the penetration tests he got 38" penetration in wet newsprint (bullet on the left) and 12" of newsprint and 2+" of bone (bullet on the right)...



I cast some 325 WFN quenched in a bucket of water and use them in my 45 LC Blackhawk, they are only 1150 fps, and they will shoot ragged groups at 25 yards when I do my part. They go through pig shoulders like hot butter.

Choot em!
