Default Hornady 300g SST -- 50g Blackhorn

The 300 grain SST bullet used in this test, was provided by twild. Fifty grain of Blackhorn was the propellant. The bullet was shot into the trap (photo) placed 25 yard away. Today there was quite a bit less snow than when the photo of the trap was taken.














The bullet blew up the first jug; blew up the second jug, to a lesser extent; went through the third, and fourth jugs, and bounced off the fifth jug. The fifth jug was left with a leak where the bullet hit it. The sixth jug was undamaged, and will be used sometime in the future. A small piece of the bullet' jacket was found under the horse. The bullet was found on the ground about six feet straight left of the horse. The bullet now weighs 292.3 grain.
