If your looking for a copper monolith hunting bullet Barnes has 4 suitable choices, 200, 225, 250, and 275 XPB bullets. Cutting Edge has several choices, 240 handgun raptor and a 300 grain soild. My personal favorite is NorthFork Technologies 260 CPS (Cup Point Solid).

I have used all of them successfully in the field.

be safe

While thats true the bullet was just a sample of what bullets in the weight people want them will look like at a size for those who are size queens and especially chasing the Monolith 600gn+ in 500SW

Hoping the working with Fort Scot will make that available and people have that choice. Predominantly I expect it would be for hunters because of the performance characteristics of their bullets. In both heavier and lighter bullets and that they make sense to use in hunting situation in both long guns and pistols.

Started cutting metal today on pumps actions....
