    The gallant 217gn 30 caliber bullet is awesome in 300 Whisper/Blackout.
    So... the Gallant 217gn is a cast-lead bullet with polymer coating? How does it compare to something like a JHP?

    Yup. Just coated lead.

    At 300 Whisper/Blackout velocities they behave just like a JHP, minimal expansion. They do mushroom a touch, but more often that anything they just bend.

    Yes. Awesome bullet. Kind of my all around 30 caliber plinking bullet. Incredible accurate and will stop a deer or coyote in their tracks.

    Not as cool looking as the 125 Sierra or 110 Barnes through.
