Check out the Luckygunner test on HST 147 gr, awesome results. Plus, great price at Bone Frog Ammo, 50 rds for what you'd pay for 25 of CD. Win Win.
If you like the HST 147gr you will like their new 150gr round even more! It has noticeably less recoil and less muzzle flash but achieves the same penetration and expansion profile.
I bought several boxes at Walmart for less than the 124gr or 147gr cost.
