Great Bull, how well did the DGX regulate in your double?

The 400gr Bonded DGX and DGS grouped identically. Regulation was just fine.

In terms of performance on game; here’s the recovered Bonded DGX from the Buff. 80% weight retention.

Very nice, thanks for the picture and weight retention. I'm sure that some on AH will claim that 80% weight retention is not good for a DG bullet, but I'm not one of them. Thanks for sharing.

Buff hunted with Ken and Virginia 3 years ago, wife with me. Great hunt but most of all really nice caring people. Traveled a day with them. Wife is not a hunter but Va. took real good care of her. Brought in local kids to preform for us. Just a wonderful experience with great company. The day I took my buffalo was the most satisfying in 60 pluse years. Try them and you too will agree. Thanks again Ken and Virginia

From what I’m reading expected weight retention on these Bonded DGX is anywhere from 80-90% in ballistic gel. This one encountered some bone for sure. That said, it performed beautifully with 2X expansion.
