Very interesting,did you test it in any medium? I wonder what one of the bonded shock waves would do in the same circumstances.I have loadedthem up to a 150 gr.[2100fps] and still have not been able to get one to frag.do you suppose the higher vol. and faster twist of the savage makes the differance?Lee
No I did not. I want to set up a soaked paper test. Although someone else a while back did a paper test on the Barnes Expander and it really did an excellent job. I fully expected it to flatten after hitting 3/4 inch fire hardened steel plates.
