Patriot Valley Arms (PVA) Monolithic Bullets

[Banded_spooney]

I used them last year on antelope, mule deer, and elk. All with a 6.5 prc at 3200 fps.

Great results, the elk made it 30 yds before collapsing, and the mule deer and antelope dropped.

Shots were 200-400 yds.

Using them again this year, the wound channel was devastating.

Fwiw I have had poor results with barns.

Also, what am I missing, the stated BC's seem almost impossible. the 170 7mm says g1 of .77??

Interesting, what did it do differently in terms of performance on game than a ttsx ?

I have had them pass through without much tissue damage and blood trail at all. I hit a cow behind the shoulder at 50 yards with a 300 wsm shooting the 165 TSX and she ran about 150 yards before folding. Had it not been for the snow I don’t know if I would have found her.

I cannot dispute them, though I don’t shoot anything in 7mm. They are very good to talk with you on the phone when you call.

Better late than never to the party on this:

The BC's are possible due to the aerodynamics that I hold (5) different utility patents on. The family of patents falls under this application:
