Default RE: Hevi-Shot ML Sabots

I have some but have not shot them. I just wanted to add a little note to this.

Hevi shot ML bullets are very hard and will not expand on an animal.

I just went into the garage and sat one of the cement and hit it with a hammer to see just how hard they really are and if they would mushroom at all. It actually broke into three pieces. I don't know it they would fragment on game or not but it didn't take all that much force to make this one fragment.

I don't know if this would be desireble or not but three or four chunks of hevi shot may produce a big wound channel. I'll have to shoot these through some ply wood or something else fairly hard and see how many holes they make on some cardboard set up behind it.
