The new MZL Maximus™ high BC muzzleloader bullet was designed for use in in-line muzzleloaders and could possibly be the most accurate muzzleloader bullet ever made. These bullets were designed for that after 1-2" of penetration, 4 blades break off and radiate outward away from the main wound channel while the base continues through for even deeper penetration creating a massive amount of trauma.

To use in a .45Cal muzzleloader, you will need the light blue Harvester Crush Rib Sabots found under Accessories and Supplies.

This is the SH*T

Is the CEB 165 Maximus accurate? Very much so, sub minute. Is it flat shooting? Absolutely. Three inches thigh at 100 yards,dead on at 200 yards. I’m sighted in 1 inch high at 100 yards , a mid broadside hold at 200 is spot on.The CEB 165 grain bullets are leaving the barrel at close to 3000 fps. Are the CEB bullets up to the job.You betcha. Very effective. No deer went farther than fifty yards.A couple of bang flops. A couple of chin hitting the ground before running a bit and piling up. I Plan on shooting some 300 yard targets to see what it does at that distance when I am getting around a bit better. Does the CEB bullet poke good size holes for blood trailing. See the pictures.(the high shot is on me) CEB claims the bullet tip breaks off into four pieces with the base remaining intact. I have no reason to doubt them. They work. On smaller deer a lower brisket heart shot impact is very destructive with not much identifiable in the jellied goo and skinning a bit dicey around the shoulders for fear of pulling the front half off from the back half.

We are so happy to hear about your positive experience! Thanks so much for sharing with us. Happy hunting!

So far so good

Loaded using H110. Chronoed at 2661. 1 moa at 100 yards out of a Ruger American Gen 2 predator. Hope they perform on deer this season.

I used this bullet on a wild boar hunt. One shot the boar went down where he stood. 77grns by weight of blackthorn 209. Will use the same in Nov."24.

Awesome terminal performance. Took a very nice whitetail buck on my first outing with them. He was DRT. The sabots are some of the best I've ever used. They opened perfectly and are very consistent. I recovered over 30 from two different rifles between 10 and 12 feet from the muzzle. Glad I found them and purchased them. There was a problem with the delivery on my end and Cutting Edges customer service was fast and made sure I got my products. Couldn't be happier!

Was unable to get it to group out of a Cva Acura L-RX tried 2 different sabots and the blue one from cutting edge was to loose in the barrel so it didn’t seal the gas and had erratic velocities and 4 foot groups at 100 yards, mmp sabots were a little bit better, only bullet from cutting edge I’ve had a problem with.

It sounds like your barrel is a bit oversized. There is a known inconsistency with muzzleloader barrels across the board. Sometimes a lubed patch on the base of the sabot will help to seal the barrel and make up for that void. If you have the means to pin your barrel and see what the actual diameter is, that may help to narrow down what is going on.
