I just inherited a couple of boxes of this ammo. The boxes look pretty old although in excellent condition. I haven't seen that this ammo is still available anywhere so I'm just curious to see if anyone is familiar with these rounds.
Thanks

I'm unfamiliar with them but sure would like to see some actual chronograph results of such a load.

I will have to keep looking on cheaper than dirt and see if I can spot it. So far I haven't found any 147gr +P, but it often takes me two or three times to spot stuff like that.
I haven't chronographed any of these rounds, however, the box says they move at 1100fps.
The 147 Gr Cor-Bon is a jacketed HP bullet. The DPX is the all copper 115GR Hollowpoint. They do not make a 147GR +P in DPX as the all copper bullet is very large compared to a jacketed lead HP.
