Back in the day, muzzleloader hunters weren’t shooting much beyond sidelocks and patched round balls. Nowadays, we have advanced, in-line ignition systems and saboted spitzer bullets with ballistic tips. The whole outfit smacks of centerfire technology almost more than it looks like a muzzleloader.
In that vein, we have Thor muzzleloader bullets, which represents substantial innovation and technological progress in the muzzleloader industry. And you can like them (or hate them, if you’re a traditionalist) but they perform as they say they will.
Here are the things that, in a nutshell, make these muzzleloader bullets just better.
Better Gas Seal, Higher Speed
When shooting a muzzleloader, the bullet or ball has to be ever so slightly smaller than the bore in order to make it possible to load it.
Therefore, you also need some way to account for the difference in diameter in order to get a good gas seal. Up till now, you had two basic options: patches (used with round balls) and sabots (used with bullets).
But Thor muzzleloader bullets flip that paradigm over. True to bore diameter, they do not require a patch or a sabot, and also feature a hollow bullet base, which expands into and offers a superior grip on the rifling, sealing the bore.
This feature not only improves bullet speed, but also increases accuracy, and minimizes cleaning between shots.
Together, these features result in a muzzleloader bullet that produces a better gas seal and is faster overall than other bullets and patched balls.
Consistent Expansion
Thor muzzleloader bullets also feature Lightning ballistic tips that are designed for optimal expansion and weight retention, so you get the benefit of optimal penetration paired with rapid, devastating energy dump.
Moreover, these fully, 100% copper-jacketed bullets are designed to enhance expansion by 30% and are designed not to fragment, retaining 95% or more of the bullet’s weight. This enables deeper, wider wound channels and cavitation.
A Cleaner Muzzleloader Bullet
These Thor bullets are also cleaner, which is better for both you and the rifle you shoot. They are fully copper-jacketed and designed not to fragment.
For one thing, that massively reduces (if not eliminates) lead fouling in your bore, making it easier to clean your rifle. It also helps reduce lead exposure and thereby the potential effects of lead toxicity.
On top of that, these full-bore muzzleloader bullets are designed not to fragment on impact with the intended target, keeping the bullet core in one spot and reducing lead fragmentation through the meat. This also helps minimize lead exposure.
