As I recall the piledriver has a Wide Flat Nose.
If I am correct, pushing it overly fast might give you results you'd rather not see.
I had a 355gr WFN moving at just over 2300fps for my first year of cast bullet hunting and the deer I took that year was surely dead right there.
Huge wound channel! Way over kill.
Now, I'm using a 465gr WFN at 1650fps and it is just soooooo much better ! Great wound channel without over the huge over kill, and the wound channel is looooog!
It is pretty well documented that the velocities over the mid thousand feet per second decrease the length of the wound channel ----- Read Randy Garrets and the Beartooth Bullet info on this ----.
Then, if the wound is as over the top waaaay too much as seen with the 355WFN, with the Piledrivers at .458 velocities, you may have way more then you really want.
