Anyone have experience with maker bullets? I’m going to get some to play with in my 300blk pistol. Please let’s not debate shooting animals with subs in this thread. Let’s just discuss maker bullets and how their performance. Thanks.

Haven’t tried them on game but into dirt and such they expand well. -
I have killed one deer subsonic with Makers. Makers will expand at subsonic velocities. I place a lot more trust in them than in the factory Hornady Sub-X rounds.Comment

Have shot a lot of Makers in both super and subsonics, all in 458 SOCOM. Not cheap, but work great. I'm a believer.Comment

used the subs on deer with zero problemsComment

Do you know the impact velocity for proper expansion?Originally posted by duckhunter175 View PostComment

The 458 Socom Rex bullets will definitely expand a sub velocities. I haven’t shot an animal with one yet but this one was recovered from my dirt back stop from about 40 yards.

Mine looked exactly the same when I shot a bag of concrete that had been left out in the rain. I figured it would grenade, but all 3 bullets were recovered and looked the same.Originally posted by Mike D View PostThe 458 Socom Rex bullets will definitely expand a sub velocities.

I built my Socom specifically for shooting subs. The 300 blackout with huge expanding subs just doesn’t have the *** to push through. The Socom has 4x the energy on target as the blackout.
