PowerBelt AeroLite 50 Cal. 250 Grain AeroTip Muzzleloading Bullet (15)

PowerBelt® AeroLite® Bullets borrow many of the PowerBelt Platinum’s technical advantages - such as its plating technology, fluted gas check, and aggressive taper. However, the AeroLite bullet itself is completely different on the inside, being specifically designed to deliver optimal performance when used with standard (100 grain) propellant charges - the charge used by most hunters.

The AeroLite has a much larger hollow point cavity than either the Platinum or Copper PowerBelts. This larger cavity maximizes expansion capability while eliminating weight from the core of the bullet, allowing the bullet to be substantially longer than standard projectiles of similar weight. A longer bullet length produces more stability in flight and therefore, greater accuracy. A super-hard polycarbonate AeroTip® fills the void of the oversized hollow point and serves to both optimize aerodynamics in flight and control expansion on impact. All of these AeroLite technologies are fine-tuned to perform best at standard charge velocities (1800 fps or less on impact) - providing magnum performance without the magnum recoil.

This does not mean, however, that magnum charges can never be used with AeroLites. In hunting situations where long-range shots are the norm, Aerolites may indeed be the best choice - even with a 150 grain load.

The bullet now known as the PowerBelt® was originally designed by a small group of black powder enthusiasts who set out to create the perfect muzzleloading projectile. Disappointed with the inconsistent accuracy of the old style conical bullets and frustrated with the difficult loading of the modern sabots, they created a belted bullet that addressed all of these concerns; and delivered unsurpassed accuracy and knockdown power, as well. This basic design was patented and first sold as the Black Belt Bullet. Just a few years later, Michael McMichael, one of the original partners and now the president of PowerBelt Bullets, perfected the design, creating what would become the number one selling muzzleloading projectile in the world - the PowerBelt Bullet.

PowerBelt Bullets are now proudly manufactured in Nampa, Idaho. Over the years, the PowerBelt factory has grown from just a few friends working in a garage operation to a work force of more than 30 full-time employees housed in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, using the latest modern production equipment and technologies. However, despite all of this growth and modernization, all of PowerBelt's employees are still dedicated to the same goal as were the original partners - producing high quality and great performing muzzleloading projectiles.
