Speer tnt varmint bullets?

Use to shoot the 50gr in a .222 rem. They dropped coyotes very well with little hole going in and nothing coming out with Decent accuracy to boot. Wonder about trying the 55 gr in my 22/250.
 
Those are very good bullets and they certainly live up to their name. We used to be able to get them in Canada loaded in the 22win mag. Even at those velocities they were devastating. Accurate and explosive. Best rabbit round I could find. When loaded in the 223rem it is also very accurate. I found it to explosive for the 22-250
 
I shoot the 39gr tnt's out of my .204 . They are very accurate and very devistating to gophers. Hopefully I can get to try them out on a coyote or two this year
 
Speer is my go-to for varmint bullets. I have used a ton of their 52 gr hollow points and their 55 gr soft points in my 223 because they are so accurate and reliable. While I haven't personally used their 50 gr or 55 gr tnt bullets yet, my friends who have sing nothing but praise of their performance.

Which cartridge are you loading for? Here is a description of the tnt construction from their website...

From Speer Website:
EXPLOSIVE AND ACCURATE. TNT® gives you what you want most-superior on-game performance. Starting with TNT's thin precision jacket, we add internal fluting and a dead-soft lead core to ensure complete bullet disruption. We finish the forming with a long ogive and a small hollow point. This gives us the ballistic coefficients needed for long shots. In fact, TNT's coefficients rival those of similar boat tail bullets. In a little over ten years, TNT has become one of our best sellers. Why? Great accuracy and impressive terminal performance.
