RE: What are fragmenting bullets to you?
ORIGINAL: sabotloader Powerfisher it looks like you are quoteing me as saying.... Fact is I like the Lehigh bullets better than the Barns all copper because they will do the same job with out leaving copper in my barrel. SWThomas, what was wrong? My quote from the wrong person (which I admit) or that the Barnes will leave copper fouling in the bore? Which I dont understand? Just trying to learn so dont be too hard on me. [/align] |
RE: What are fragmenting bullets to you?
Powerfisher,
That was me that said that I reload and shoot some cartridge competition to and the barns all copper copper coated my .270 and my .223 barrels, so I decided I did not care for them. I found a wide variation in weight also, the all brass or gilded are better. Lee |
RE: What are fragmenting bullets to you?
Thanks Lee. My reading comprehension isnt the best at times so the copper fouling confused me. Thanks for clearing it up for me. I thought that somehow I was missing the the tell-tale blue-hue from the copper. This post stirred up a lot of questions. Sorry I got off topic.

I would think it fair that a SST/SW, Barnes, etc may shed some weight but is not DESIGNED to fragment. This is the best definition we have heard so far - of those bullets and I would even go so far as to say any normally accepted American Big Game hunting bullet. Any bullet will fragment if you shoot it fast enough. |

Still holding out for the pics of the fragmented Barnes bullets. I have yet to see a barnes ML bullet loose any part of itself other than the polimer tip.

I would suggest finding something else to do. The people that use the Barnes bullets already know the bullets mentioned don't have polymer tips. Also it was my mistake to even bring that up on this board. All information i posted was false and i have no pictures to back it up. |

Ya know SWthomas. I just went back & read this entire thread. I didnt see anything said b Grouse or anyone else that could have offended you. So I just have to assume you,re just a Miserable PRICK. Get a life dude. Pull the big giant stick out your butt, go kick your dog, fight with your wife or what ever you need to do, but lighten up. Holy christ you are just a big giant turd, in the punch bowl of life. Im sure this post is gonna get me booted ,so you boys be safe & thanks for all the great info. Jay
