Yes the dangerous game powerbelt. Expensive!

I wanted to play with this just for fun and see.

Now your talking'. Remember his name "Mr. Powerbelt", that should explain it. Chap Gleason

It is an interesting result none the less. I would half exected the screw to be punched right through rather than creating a mount.

So do you think with the steel tip, you could push them a little faster, & they would hold up a little better on bone? Is that your goal?

RE: recovered the reinforced powerbelt 245g
 

Goal was. well just to see what it would do. Thats it lol.

If i can find some more screws in this size, i will make some more and test them at higher charges.

i used the screw due to the fact that when the lead starts to mushroom, it will have something to grip and hold on to rather than a smooth shaft to slide right down.

That result is really neat gander, and not what I would have expected. So, the screw stopped expansion at the center of the bullet. I'm not familiar with the size of the hole in the PB - how would a regular steel BB fit in it? Could you just tap a BB in there and would it hold with a friction Fit.

RE: recovered the reinforced powerbelt 245g
 

BB will not fit.

I'll find some more screws im the AM. Right now i have to work on a new powerbelt forum. The other one isnt reliable and keeps screwing up [:@]

RE: recovered the reinforced powerbelt 245g
 

oh no, what did you do to it gander;)

RE: recovered the reinforced powerbelt 245g
 

No BB, OK. Got a hardware store near by? How about some of those little short set screws with a socket for a hex wrench? Maybe you could find a size that you could just screw into the tip.
