Default 270 Match/Hunter E-MAX first/failed Try

Tom sent 5 of these bullet, and a good thing he did. One bullet was shot through the carpet, shelf, and jugs, and flew off to Eenar. Range was 26 yard. Powder charge was 80g Blackhorn.











Judging by the hole in the shelf, it appears the bullet started to open, and then opened more in the first jug. The second jug was flattened, and as the bullet traveled through the next three jugs, it rose, and veered to the right. The bullet exited the fifth jug high enough, it missed the milk jug, and the phone book, and went away. The photo shows the jugs set in order.

Chet is playing around with that bullet. I was hoping to see it but that's ok. The BC is really inflated and not reality so im gonna get an actual BC in the near future. 2850fps is not reality in a ML with this bullet anyway.

I think the bullet landed on Sector-6 of Eenar. 512000-bytes of that sector are forbidden-zoned. No can enter it for retrieval..... sorry!
