that flattened nice. Really would make a mess in an animal. And with such a low powder charge. Does it do the same when you really push it?

I don't know.


During the summer 2010, we captured the bullet in water jugs out about 60'. Load was 105g Blackhorn.










This VIDEO shows how it happened.








We also tried to capture a couple of this bullet early spring 2010, which was the first time we ever tried catching a bullet. Powder charge was 105g Blackhorn, and that escapade is related in this thread.

The bullet seems quite stout, and my guess it would work good if really pushed. It doesn't expand at all, when the load is 50g Blackhorn, and it is shot through the carpet, plywood, and water jugs.

January 2011, the bullet was shot at paper one day, using a powder charge of 129g Blackhorn. It seemed to work fine; the tale.
