Here are some lead ballistic tip bullets that I have been looking at. Do you guys think they would lead fowl real bad or would they be a viable option for the 450? They have awesome BC's!!

There are some very impressive looking muzzle loader bullets out there if a guy is willing to put up with some possible lead fowling but I also wonder if moly coating them would reduce that.
Check these out they have some very impressive numbers but...........they ain't cheap!! http://www.parkerproductionsinc.com/ http://randywakeman.com/ParkerUltimateExtreme325.htm

Holy cow! 3" high at 100 and 4" low at 300! 1000+ pounds of energy out to 600!! Of course it would have to be loaded to get to 2200 fps first.. but wow.
Edit: I just looked at the chart again, because I knew something had to be wrong. I was looking at the moa column. 13 low at 300 sounds more realistic.... bummer.
