Copper Raptor

The Copper Raptor line of projectiles are a lead-free hunting projectile design, due to the laws in some US states the mandate lead-free projectiles. CEB's brass projectiles contain just under 3% lead for machineability. So CEB have produced a copper projectile line that has the same design as the established copper target projectiles, with the SealTite Band and slightly sub-calibre shank. However, they incorporate the same Raptor Tip as the ESP and Safari Raptors, with a six blade deep cavity design. The Raptor Tip ensures the highest possible ballistic co-efficient, and devestating terminal performance that you've come to appreciate with the brass Raptor lines.

Note:  Because these projectiles are solid copper, they are considerably longer than lead core projectiles of the same weight. As such, they will likely require a faster twist than the same weight lead core projectile. Please check the Technical Data Sheet to ensure that the projectiles you are interested in are compatible with your rifle's barrel twist rate.
