Very pleased with these. Using the recommended load length netted me 1.5 moa. The performance has been as promised as well. Double lunged a coyote that ran 30 yards. The round opened quickly and bored a 2.5″ hole the rest of the way. Outstanding.

I purchased the 342 grain expanding bullets thinking if I could get 1moa at 50 I’d be doing good. But after some experiments with a different powder and charge I was able to get 1moa at 100 out of a 16 inch barrel. And the expansion it spot on. These rounds are devastating on hogs! They have by far outperformed any other subsonic bullet I’ve tried so far. Can’t wait to purchase a can and see how they do. Great product for the price.

I want to amend my previous review. After dropping the charge on these to around 900fps I am getting 2 MOA consistently. I am very satisfied with these.

These projectiles are great. They expand as advertised and do so very reliably. I have spoken to gorilla reps and they have said they expect around 2 MOA accuracy from a 1:3 twist barrel. This has not been my experience or the experience of others that I know have tested. 3-4 MOA seems more accurate when testing sample sizes that are statistically significant, not 3 or 5 shot groups. I would have taken off a star or two for this but honestly every other expanding solid projectile in this weight range performs about the same. So all other things being equal, these are the best expanding subsonic rounds I have used to date.
I used these in a Q fix 12″ with a Porq Chop suppressor.
