Recovering Bullets - Test
I would to see how my bullet of choice will hold together on impact. ( on deer ) Can anyone suggest a simulation which would allow me to test this? I've heard shooting in to a bucket of sand. Any thoughts on this?
It's the Harvester 300 grn Scorpion PT Gold by the way.
Thanks,

Depending on the weight of the bullet, I would use multiple stacks of bound newspaper first soaked in a drum of water which total 36 - 48 inches if you can find enough of them. Lay them end to end and then shoot into the stack lengthwise.
