160deepcurl @300yds

[double_d]

Made it out to the range today, and was able to give the Speer DeepCurl another test.

This time at 300yds.





Another impressive result for the DeepCurl!

Man I would say so, very impressive indeed. Good work.

 

[FOTIS]

That is great right there.

Question: Are these available as components?

 

[DrMike]

Again, very good performance from a fine bullet.

Yes they are on the self items.

Very awesome!! That is some EXCELLENT results! Great expansion for sure!

Fotis, heck yeah they are available. I shoot them in a few rifles. I might even try them in a few others, if they ever release any newer ones.. Would be cool to see a 35 caliber Deep Curl..

I just clicked the midwayusa links......I hope the 175gr is a mistake. I paid less than $30 per box for both 160gr and 175gr.

One of my local retailers has some .277 and .284/160grs on the shelf now for less than $30 per

Great results. That is an inpressive mushroom.

Very nice. Have some 140 gr 6.5's and 150 gr 277's on order that will need to be shot into jugs

I don't understand Midways' price either? All the other weights of Speer Deep Curl cost about $30 from Midway but then the 175's are the only one in stock?

 

[SJB358]

I bet they (Speer) is changing packaging or raising prices, so the old stock is out, waiting on the new stuff. The DC's used to be pretty inexpensive for bonded bullets, now they are in line with Hornady Interbonds...

 

[Oldtrader3]

I think that I would be scrounging all of the older deep curls that I could find at $30 per 100!

 

[SJB358]

You aren't kidding!

 

[gerry]

It has to be a mistake at Midway there is no way they will be doubling them in price so quickly.

I would hope so. I know 30.00 for a 100 was a steal. They shoot really well in my 30-30 Gerry. Matter of fact, I wanna try a few more. I know they have some good offerings.

They are $32-34 for 6.5's and 277's here at least the ones my wife ordered for me for Christmas were, hope they come in soon. They are a great deal for the price and perfomance.

Without a doubt. The one I really wanted to try was the 140 in the 264WM. I was thinking it would be fearsome in that rifle.
