This bullet fits a 50 caliber rifle without a sabot; needs to be sized for the barrel. Both our boy, and myself have killed deer with the 275 grain version of this bullet. The 275g bullet destroyed two bottles when captured; leaving four bottles undamaged. Results Here. Was curious whether the 320g version was a more stout bullet, like more of an elk bullet or some such. Both bullet are easy to size to fit down the barrel, and stay sized.
The bottles are out 25 yard from the rifle muzzle. The powder charge is 80 grain Blackhorn.

The bullet went through the carpet, plywood, every bottle (six), and bounced off the stack of magazines into the tall grass about three feet to the side, and three feet in front of the horse. The bullet veered to the side, because the expansion was uneven.
This 320g bullet is definitely stronger than the 275g bullet; we won't use it on deer, but we sure would use it for elk.
