[QUOTE="WestTn Huntin man, post: 1604893, member: 3620"] I recently went thru this Ruger. It is confusing.There are 2(250) Shock Waves on the Market. 1 has a black Sabot Jacket with a Yellow Tip. The black sabot jacket has 4 petals the bullet has a spire point. It was designed for regular M.L. loads. The other one has a yellow Jacket. The Bullet has a blue spire tip. These bullets are also Bonded.The yellow jacket only has 2 petals. TC designed this bullet for the new magnum loads. The 2 petals are supposed to grip the bullet tighter and hang on longer before falling away.Yelllow jacket blue tip equals greater accuricy at longer ranges. My gun shoots them both very well.Yellow jacket blue tip costs more money.They come in a Box of 15. Black jacket yellow tip comes in a box of 30 and cost less per bullet. There is a difference but not much. Better performance at longer ranges is what TC advertises.I haven't shot both enough out of my New ML to say one is better than the other I will try to find the links for my research and post them.
