Bullets

[deadeye]

So with all the talk of people not liking the Hornady SST muzzleloader bullets that got me curious. Are people finding the same issues with the SST shotgun slugs? Also does anybody shoot the Hornady XTP bullets and have opinions on them?

I used SST 12g slugs when they 1st came out... Didnt take me long to change for this same reason.

I shoot Hornady in my Marlin 45/70, they are fantastic. Cycle smooth, very accurate, expand terrific.

Sst slugs are just hole punchers. They are very accurate but no expansion. I bought a bunch a few years ago and will continue to use them until they are gone. I've killed 3 bucks with them over the last 3 seasons and all have died in sight (all double lung) so they can easily get the job done but I believe there are better options available. A buddy switched to Winchester Partition golds and the exit wounds on those are impressive.
