It had only penetrated a couple of inches, stopping against the shoulder bone - and had obviously never had a lead core inside the jacket. The nose just sort of crumpled and collapsed on itself. Sure would hate to have had the round up the pipe on a charging grizzly bear! It did about as much damage as a .38 wadcutter.
Roskoe,
any idea what kinda bullet it was?? no lead core being said, was it a barnes x bullet?? I thought x bullets were known for awesome penetration.
