Thanks for the accuracy report. Mine should be here tomorrow from mid south. I got some from Presleysoutdoors.con. They came in 4 days after I ordered them. I haven’t had a chance to try them yet.
I ordered from Brownells. The last Midsouth order I placed took almost 3 weeks to ship. That is not transit time, that is THREE WEEKS AFTER ACCEPTING MY ORDER THAT IT WAS SHIPPED.I dont order anything from Midway any longer. The CEO and their folksy origin is not where they are. Its all about $$
Just did an accuracy test with the Bore Driver 100 grV BH209 in a ruger 77/50. 100 yds. The rifle will normally shoot 250 barnes with crush rib sabot into 1-1.5". Definitely deer capable.

The only real positive thing I can say is that they are easy to load. My Barnes combo has cloverleafed several times off the bench and I know how they perform on a deer. Lot of deer shot only one bullet recovered and it went in lengthwise, to be recovered in the back leg. Looked like an advertisement for Barnes.I would say they are deer MOA out to about 200 yards, based on that group.
OK. But nothing to write home about.
Your 250 Barnes/sabot load is much better.

what was your load?I shot a one hole three shot group at 50 yards this week with the new BoreDriver bullets in my Remington 700ML which I converted to 209 primers.
what was your load?
never knew that was a ruleI am very sorry, but the powder contained more nitrocellulose than BH209. I used QuickLoad to make sure the pressure was low enough for my rifle.
