Here is a picture of a 8 pointer that
ended up in my freezer last week.
Sunday the 23rd just at daylight he crossed
a corn field about 60 yards from my stand.
Thanks so much for the sabortooth bullets, the deer never made it back to the
woods with both lungs blown out.
Thanks,
Jim Risch

On November 18, 2007, I took this big Illinois 160 inch 10 point using your Scorpion 240 gr. bullets. They performed flawlessly. I made a 40 yard shot to take this big boy down. These bullets are GREAT, I look forward to using them again. Thanks for a great product.
Thanks,

Dear Sirs, I just want to take this time to thank you for a great product. I have a very tight bored Thompson Center Encore 209x50 magnum muzzleloader
topped with a Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40 scope. I have shot Precision Rifle bullets of various types & weights, TC
Shockwave 250 grain, Barnes MZ 250 grain, Barnes Spitfire 245 grain,& now your fabulous 300 grain
funnel point bullets with Crush Rib sabots.
The Precision Rifle Dead Center Duplex 195 grain bullets
loaded well & shot good too. The Spitfires & the Shockwaves shot pretty well also. The Barnes MZ would
not load at all. These bullets all fell into 2" groups with 130 grains of Black Mag3 Powder. I read about
your bullets & wanted something that loaded easier,
shot well, & had the ability to transfer massive
amounts of energy into a Whitetail. I am happy to
report that one of the local stores carries your
products. I purchased the bullets & headed for the
range.
I dropped to 120 grains of powder & fired a 3
shot group at 85 yards.(that's all the distance I have
available & farther than any shot I have on a hunt)
Windage was perfect, but I was about 2 inches low with
a 1" group. I made an elevation adjustment & fired
another 3 shot string, this time just above the small
bullseye & in a nice tight 1/2" group. These bullets
load so much easier & shoot so much better, I can't
wait to see how they perform on game. Thanks again for
a superior product.

I have to say – holy sh_t! These Scorpion PT gold bullets are fantastic! I shot out of a Thompson Center Omega (50 cal.) I started with 120 grains of 777 loose powder and wet patched after each shot. Once on the paper, I went out to 150 yards with about 5-6 mph wind. I shot three rounds and had a one inch group!! I set my sights at 4-inches high at 150 yds. and backed off to 200 yards and shot three more, ending with a 1-1/4” group. Not too bad, given the wind and gusts.
I shot them against the Cabelas “Dead Center” bullets – a total joke round, the TC bullets – scattered impacts, and the Hornady 300 gr xtp – not bad group under 100 yds, then I had to go pick up the bullet, reload and shoot it the rest of the way!
My boys and some of my friends want to switch to your bullets now. I’m 1000% confident in your bullets now.

I took this dandy 160-class buck at 193-yards during
a late muzzleloader hunt, shooting the new 260-grain Scorpion PT Gold. The sleek polymer-tipped bullet was
pushed out of a .50 caliber Knight "Long Range Hunter"
by 110 grains of FFFg Triple Seven at 2,030 f.p.s.
The deer went less than 30 yards before going down.
What a great new muzzleloader hunting bullet!

I used your 350 grain saber tooth and 90 grains of Triple 7 to take this buffalo
this past week in Colorado.
The bullet performed well...so well I was unable to recover it...Buffalo
went down not to rise again. It weighed over 1100 lbs.
Thanks for a great product.

I am shooting a CVA Wolf 50 caliber with a 150 grains of Triple seven pellets
and your 270 grain sabertooth bullets and I have to say after a few
adjustments to the scope my last round was a 3 inch group at 100 yards, dead
center of a pistol target.
I still have to do some fine tuning but I am very pleased with your product
and plan on ordering more.
Thank you again for the free samples and I just want to say you have a new
customer who will recomend your product to anyone who is interested.

Based on my years of using Hornady xtp .45 ca. I will continue using this
bullet, but only in your sabots. Loading is unbelievable easy and accuracy
at a 100 yds. is within 11/2 inches consistently. I also shot the TC shockwave
super glide,but this bullet in your sabot is a dream to load. I also shot
the Knight with their sabot and then with yours. There was no comparison.
Yours were easier to load and as accurate or better than theirs, with so
much less effort. To further test your sabot, I fired 6 consecutive shots
with the Hornady 240 gr. .45 cal. with 100 grs. pyrodex select without running a patch down the barrel and honestly the sixth shot loaded as easily
as the first, something I could never possibly do in the past. These six
shots grouped less than 2 in. at 100 yds. What more could anyone ask for?
Thank you for making shooting black powder fun again.

Al Lammert with Lammert and Associates with his Cape Eland. While in South Africa He also harvested Springbok, Mountain Zebra, and two Gemsbok... They were all shot with a muzzle loader (a T/C New Englander) using Harvesters .50 cal. Saber Tooth bullets... |

First I'd like to say there is no better sabot for the .45 period. I have
been shooting smokeless muzzleloaders for around 6 years now
and your sabot's have day in day out been more accurate and stronger then
anything out there.i have shot some pretty darn good groups out to 300yrds
that wouldn't be possible without your sabot's. Please do not change a thing
with these sabot's they are perfect.

My name is Chuck Bennett, from Cape Girardeau, MO. I
just wanted to share this photo of two deer I took
last December, during the Missouri muzzleloader
season. Both were taken with the 275-grain Harvester
Muzzleloading "Saber-Tooth" bullet. The doe was taken
at about 40 yards and the buck at about 60 yards.
Both were taken with one shot, and went down quickly.
I was shooting a .50 caliber T/C Omega rifle, with a
100-grain charge of FFFg Triple Seven. I chose the
"Saber-Tooth" bullet because it loads so easily, and
shoots very well out of this rifle. Thanks for a
great product. I know I'll be using the "Saber-Tooth"
bullet again this next season.

"I used the 250 grain
"Saber Tooth bullet". with 110 grains of Hodgdon 777
this past weekend to knock down a beautiful 5x4 mule deer in the
Weminuche Wilderness on a backpack bivy hunt. I shot the buck at
137 yards and dropped him dead
in his tracks, my farthest open sighted ML kill. I recovered the
bullet and was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked."
Thanks for a great product,

If you must load with an easy loading bore-sized bullet, check out the Scorpion from Harvester Muzzleloading (at www.harvesterbullets.com). These shoot very well out of most 1-in-28 inches twist bores (such as in the Black Diamond), expand very well and hold together for great weight retention. See attached photo of the 275-grain version, which weighed 269 grains when recovered. I harvested these
two deer with a 260 grain Scorpion bullet using the Crush Rib Sabot.

| In my state we can only use non jacketed lead bullets, but the problem that I was having was finding a bullet that gave great penetration without expanding too quickly or blowing apart in an animal. I wanted one that would give great penetration and devastating on animal performance consistently. Well in 1999 I was trying my usual early summer testing on wet newspaper of a few bullets and found one that out preformed every one I had ever shot, I was used to getting the usual of about 15 to 18 inches of penetration. The HARVESTER bullets were blowing through the box completely and they were 30 inches deep, so I added another 10 inches of wet paper and got the some result. This process finally found that I was getting from 52 to 58 inches of penetration and the bullets were retaining about 75% of the original weight. I was floored with these results; the next step was to try the Harvesters on game. My deer season came and I got a quartering away shot on a blacktail at about 90 yards, it dropped where it stood! The HARVESTER passed through and shattered the off hand shoulder in the process, Elk was next with the same result on a shot at about 100 yards on a Rosevelt cow that weighed in at just under 1000lbs. |
I was sold. I have been using Harvesters for 7 years with out a single failure and this year I took my 20th elk. I have no worries about this bullet, and have found a bullet that hits harder and gives better performance than even the jacketed bullets I have tested for out of state .

I shot this 7-point buck in Wisconsin with 2 pyrodex pellets behind a 330 grain Harvester at approximately 100 yards. The shot left a 3" diameter wound channel and went through both lungs. Thank you for producing a very fine product.

I shot this antelope in Wyoming on September 5, 1998 with on shot at approximately 80 yards. I used a Harvester 330 grain hard cast bullet with 105 grains off FFG black powder. I find the bullets to be very accurate.

I am sending you a picture of my son Carmen and myself showing my son's first deer. Carmen harvested this doe at 90 yards using your 50 cal. crushed rib sabots with a Speer 260 grain bullet. The charge was 100 grains of Pryodex (2 pellets). We range tested this load for days, he liked how easy it was to reload with your sabots. We both thank you for such a fine product. It did exactly as you said it would.

I want to commend you on a fine bullet you have developed. This is my first year of my 40 year hunting life that I have taken a whitetail with a muzzleloader. It was a 128.5 inch 10 pointer, my first 10 pointer out of 113 deer I've taken in Illinois. I took 3 more after him all one shot kills. These pics are my actual first 5 shots ever with sabertooth bullets. Thanks again for a fine bullet.
