Default The 270g Deep Curl








Bein's how the 250g bullet only ruined 2 jugs, i went a head and tried the 270g at the 45 foot distance on the 4 remaining jugs. Same 105g load of BH209. This time the bullet went through all 4 jugs. I searched behind the jugs for the bullet, and found pieces about 7 feet away. The bullet pieces weigh 90.7g














The 270g Deep Curl shedding so much weight was quite new to me. They are found on the ground behind the targets in much better shape than this one. Following is a photo of a couple of them 270g bullet after they went through jugs and boards a couple of year ago.

Here is what the 270g bullet did two summers ago.

Here is what the 300g bullet did near 2 year ago.

Today's results of the 270g bullet find me quite puzzled.
