Yes they are accurate - but they are pricy. Gotta really push them to overcome the Light Weight too.

Haven't killed anything with it though.
C2N14... because life is not energetic enough.

My Rossi. I was shooting the Factory loading by Federal. Slow & Wimpy, but probably decent for small game in Cali...
