Deadly silent Sholder Fire howitzer
- 09/30/2016
Superb accuracy at 100yards .made a hog kill At 208 yards subsonic . expands very fast within inches . Cuts like a razor and makes the loudest melon pop you've ever Hurd hitting game . The energy transfer is so heavy you can see them take the load like a supersonic 30-06 and Suppresses perfectly ,and I never use my 300 blackout anymore . Also Puts Lehigh defense to shame .
Warning! This product is habit Forming!

This bullet is the only reason I like subsonic. Maintains velocity and more importantly energy at distance. Drops yea but with a 100yd zero, goin 200yds is easily done. Much much more humane kills with this bullet over .30 subs. Shot a buck 80yds. Full expansion and pass thru. Dead in 6 seconds.
Dead deer

Tested this bullet on 1 gallon milk jugs at 1030fps before hunting and found the bullet in the 5th jug with perfect expansion. I made a bad 60 yard quartering shot on a deer that ended up taking out about 6" of spine and the bullet was just under the skin on the other side with the same expansion fully intact. 2 thumbs way up.

I used this bullet to harvest a deer this fall. I developed a load in my 458 socom with this projectile going 1025 fps. Performance was flawless with full weight retention and petals opening up to 1.5” and they all stayed intact. Bullet entered high in buck’s nasal cavity and lodged in neck hitting spine. He dropped like a brick for a dirt.
Great results.

I will keep it short. Great results, have taken 4 deer in two weeks. Pass through on all 4 deer, between 50 and 80 yards. This is my go to for subsonic. Would recommend to any one and will be purchasing more.
Excellent projectiles and outstanding customer service

Purchased 400 of these 500 gr. Maker .458 socom projectiles. Mr. Paul (the owner) will go above and beyond to make sure you get what you need and is very personable! He and his staff make a quality and reliable projectile that has worked extremely well for me on multiple hunts. I have purchased ammunition using his projectiles on many occasions in the past, but now that I've decided to start reloading myself, I will continue to purchase from here and invest my money in an amazing company that actually cares about its customers!
Exceptional performance on big black bear
- 06/03/2024
I just concluded a spring black bear hunt where I took a 300lb+ boar at 90 yards with this bullet out of a .458 SOCOM. The bear expired within seconds inside 25 yards, which is as fast as any bear I have ever taken. I have been extremely impressed with the accuracy of these bullets / this load. Seriously one ragged hole at 100 yards. The bullet did NOT pass through the bear, but due to the angle of the shot did pass through one front shoulder. Highly recommended.

I have to post again this year. Just took a 7 point. Hit him broad side, he went 25 yards. I have taken several deer with this round over the years. The owner has been helpful for load development. I now have a load that is 1/2 group at 100 yards with a bolt action I built. This bullet has great energy and super knock down. You can hear the bullet hit the deer like an arrow. This is the only sub I trust for hunting, and it’s lead free. Thanks for the great product and the info. I do recommend for any one looking a great 458 sub for hunting.
