Another fantastic offering from CEB. Good luck finding a more accurate bullet in your wheelgun than the Raptor. I’ve tried and this is it. I shoot them in .44, .454, and soon will be in .500Linebaugh. Keep up the good work guys!
Took tuskless elephant in Zimbabwe with CEB ,458 450 gr Safari Solid. Two shots, both complete passthrough of elephant head. Muzzle velocity of 2310 fps from .458 Winchester Magnum. Could load to higher velocity but that is unnecesary.
Amazing projectile. Used the reloading data I found for the projectile and work my way to a load that works. AR10 with 12.5” barrel and 1:3 twist
The 200 grain raptors are super accurate easy to load for two different powders worked beautiful can't wait for the big buck to come by
My purchase for your .284 145gr MTH bullets was a refill order. I found a useful load with this bullet and it performs very well out of my 280 AI rifle. Thanks for a quality product.
I used cutting edge lazers 265 gr 338 in my stock savage 110 ba stealth 24" barrel. ended up with 1 first place and 1 second place in rookie light at spearpoint ranch. with a second place rookie for the over all season.
I used cutting edge lazer 500 gr 416 bullets in my 416 stroker for rookie elr heavy class. won first place in 3 matches second place in 2 matches and third place last match of the season and won first in over all season at spearpoint ranch.
All of the Cutting edge bullets I’ve ordered in the past are premium quality and very reasonably priced. They are my “go to source” for African big game bullets.
I have tried A-Max and Barnes solids. The Cutting Edge Lasers have become my favorite for long distance. They retain the most weight to drive through and the copper is pretty tough. I Molly coat them before loading. The Molly seems to keep my pressure signs under control with the loads I am using and helps my brass life. I have these 750 grain Lasers coming out at 2750 fps and they fly true for a very long way. At long distance I am using the same drop chart that I was with the A-Max rounds at 2750fps. There is not much difference, so I believe the BC is pretty close to that of tha A-Max. I believe the Laser is more aerodynamic but it is shorter than the A-Max. So I feel it balances out the BC. (It would be nice to have the BC published at some point to know what it is.) Being shorter than the A-Max it should have a slight bit less wind interference from a full 90 cross wind? Great projectiles, please continue to produce the 750 grain Lasers.
These are really well made, solid and precisely cut. They load well and are decently accurate (I'm using a short barrel lever action in 500 S&W with a slow twist and not getting as much spin on these as I probably should to get them stable, so my accuracy is probably subpar to a normal barrel rifle with a higher twist.)
In all, very happy with this bullet/round and will be ordering more once I work up a good recipe 👍
I'm loading these with H110 for a 3" .357 magnum. I haven't shot them into any gel but nice groups on paper and minimal recoil. Definitely the carry load for my revolver.
These will be perfect for coastal CA blacktail, where lead is illegal, but I still want to hunt with my 120+ year old rifle. They look good, they shoot good, they're reasonably priced, and they'll keep one of my favorite rifles alive.
I compete in ELR matches throughout the year. I shoot a 460 Steyr which uses the.458 grain bullets. I tried other solid bullets but they didn’t produce the same quality and result that I needed for consistent accuracy. I switched midway thru the season this year to the 650 grain Lazers. They are amazing for consistency and accuracy.
Completed my Canada NWT Mt. Caribou hunt using this bullet in 7mm PRC on Impact Precision Action by Walls Rifles. Took a monster 424 B&C bull with NWT Outfitters and this bullet performed excellent. The internal damage was impressive dropping the Caribou in its tracks. The Lazer Tipped bullets are consistent, accurate and great hunting bullets. Only using cutting edge in all my rifles now.
The projectile’s are machined to perfection. Love loading my own .22’s and highly recommend them. Outstanding product.
Using these in a 445 Super Mag carbine. Super accurate and easy to load. My new goto round.
I know these bullets are the constant in the recipe. I can then focus on the powder charge and OAL. MATCH PROVEN!
I would love to give you a full review but the bullets are sill on the bench but they look fantastic.
I'm shooting these bullets in my wildcat 44 cal cartridge. They are very accurate. Will be testing on deer soon.
