Hornady LEVERevolution Ammo Question

[jvs]

I admit to being a little behind the times when it comes to something new for Lever Guns.  I was in a gunshop today and I heard a conversation about this Ammo put out by Hornady.  Before I knew it, I was in the middle of the conversation.

It seems that everyone who has tried this ammo in a Lever Action Rifle has nothing but praise for the way this ammo performs.  Even the gunshop owner says he has a hard time keeping it in stock since word got out as to it flies.  The gunshop owner also has praise for this stuff, he tried it himself.  I ended up walking out with a box of .35 Rem Pointed ammo for a tubular magazine.

I figured I would find out here what devotees of Lever Action rifles think of Hornady LEVERevolution ammo next.

What's up with this stuff?

Here's a good read on it http://www.chuckhawks.com/leverevolution.htm

That was a good read.  Thanks.

It shoots to under 1" for three shots at 100 yards in my scoped, 30-30 Marlin.  It doesn't group as well or give as much velocity in my .444 Marlin as the Hornady Light Magnum 265 gr. FN ammo.  I have not tried it in my 35 Rem. Marlin.  I have not used it on game but I am convinced that it has upped the potential of leverguns (in most cases) over the FN ammo that has served us quite well for generations.
