White Tail
You know it wasn't so long ago (I'm 63) that we bought 44 Mag. revolvers so we could get 1000# of energy in a handgun for hunting. Now I have it in a little lite G-29 10mm and with your fragmenting bullet it's more effective than the old 44 Mag. and here's how I know.
On the next road over I took a white tail with your 10mm round. Hit it exactly where I aimed. 2/3's of the way up the leg and a little forward (shoulder). The deer went straight down and nothing moved at all. Like God himself had struck it dead. Never did that with my Model 29 .44 and I tried often. Looks like you guys have done more for the handguns than the handgun companies themselves. Really historical.

Texas Boar
I am enclosing a few pictures of a Texas Boar that I shot Thanksgiving weekend (2003) with one of your incredible rounds. The round was a RBCD Performance Plus in .308, shot out of a Steyer SSG PII with an old Unertl scope. The combo is deadly. The boar was about 75 meters away when I shot him. He did manage to run a few meters before realizing he was dead; and then he politely fell over. It is hard to tell from the pictures but the boar is about a 220-240 lb. porker.
The entry wound was a small hole on the right shoulder. THERE WAS NO EXIT WOUND! All of the energy was properly released in the pig's "boiler room" and brought down the animal in short order.
Good job on this ammo. I now carry RBCD Performance Plus in my .40, .45 and 357 Sig. Defensive arms.

Elk
I bought two boxes of RBCD Performance Plus 270 Win. 110 gr ammo for an elk hunt, and I am really glad I did. Although I took a small (yearling cow) elk at fairly close range (about 70 yard), I took it with a single shot. The cover was pretty heavy and I couldn't see where she went after the shot.
After locating my friend's cow (larger animal, taken with 5 or 6 shots of a .338 Win Mag at about 60 yards), we began trying to pick up a trail to start tracking mine. My friend went to where he first saw them, and I tried to get back to the point where I fired. My friend yelled "Oh, here it is!" It had dropped where I shot it, and slid a few yards downhill. It had a single hole in the ribcage just behind the shoulder.
My friend's elk didn't fare as well. He had numerous shots, and several went completely through. His cow didn't go down immediately, and walked about 15 yards to stand, eventually falling. I wonder what the result would have been, had my friend used RBCD Performance Plus ammo.
I am sold on your ammo, and will continue to use it and will recommend it to all my hunting compadres. Thanks for producing a great product!

Caribou
I took this Caribou about 45 miles NNW of King Salmon, AK, using a custom built .300 Win and RBCD Performance Plus 300 Win, 112 grain ammunition. I had seen a demonstration of the ammunition at a local gun show and decided to try it out. The animal was taken from 339 yards away and the internal damage done was truly astounding.
I was always taught the bigger the game, the heavier the bullet. Not anymore. You have a new believer here.

Corsican / Mufflon Big Ram
My hunting trip was successful because of your ammunition. I chased my Corsican / Mufflon Big Ram for over four hours and finally ambushed him at over one hundred yards. He was hit just behind the shoulder, went ten yards and collapsed. He had an exit wound over 2"s in diameter. Dropped like a rock. My guide told me that he has never seen a ram go down that fast, especially when the ram had just started to run for it's life. Thanks again for bringing my ram down with not the most perfect shot, where as other ammunition might have left me with a wounded animal to trail.
