B&T Energetics

Has anyone tried B&T Energetics projectiles?

I was given some 40gn recently to do some gel testing and these little fellows really hit.

I didn't do any group tests, just the gel at 100m, but that impressed me.

They are .22lr brass swaged around a lead core and very frangible.

Yep they work fine. I have not bought them, I make them. You still need to work up a decent load , just like any other projectile, but for some reason people think you have to buy a shiny, factory bought projectile for it to be accurate. Plastic tipped projectiles are all the rage but are no better than a cup and core traditional projectile at normal hunting ranges. Use them and plug some critters.
