Default pushing the limit

I got out and got to get 3 shots off into sand trap just this last saturday. got to see how much a bullet I had some ?? about. the jacketed bullet, I beleave a sierra 230gr jhp





I am planning on shooting at an 1/4" board about 4 to 6 inchs in the sand to see if it what it does. also going to increase the charge close to the max to see what it would do as well.

any other suggestions?

edit: oops, it is an one inch board.

An old phone book soaked in waterwould giveyou somewhat of a better result. That is if you can find one.

What you have is very promising for sure.
