 Failed To Load Title An idea would be to reload this bullet to lower velocities to get an idea of the expansion threshold. |

Great idea! We have a batch of tests pending, waiting on velocity data right now. |

I don't know if you have the guns or ammunition to do it, but I've wondered how 124 grain HST (either +P or standard pressure or both) work through the micro 9s (Hellcat, Shield, 365). I'd offer my Hellcat and ammunition to use as I have both std. and +P but you're a bit too far away from me to make that work. |

The gel tests have begun to flow again. Here's the latest from @chopinbloc [TESTING TUESDAY] Is It Possible For The Internet To Be WRONG?!? Testing The Twist Rate Tale [TESTING TUESDAY] Is It Possible For The Internet To Be WRONG?!? Testing The Twist Rate Tale |

I did a few tests a while back in the Clear Ballistics Gel. Mostly 44-40, but I did get in some 38, 357, 45 colt and 44 magnum. ALL FROM SINGLE ACTION REVOLVERS and a rifle or two. The "REVOLVER" usage replicated "rifle impact velocities" at certain distances. The bullet "expansion" performance in the gel doesn't need to get confused with slower velocity full penetration's capabilities. Both the 200gr 44-40 and 250gr 45 Colt bullets traveling at only 700fps will completely penetrate the broadside of a horse at the shoulders. Meanwhile, "expanding design" bullets act like parachutes and would generally only penetrate 16 inches. The 44 Magnums were fun!!!

This is purely for the autists out there but this would be an interesting test: Determining "effective range" as a combination of fragmentation, yaw, penetration depth, and energy delivered at given ranges. Reduce load powder to attain velocities at given points through a trajectory. I'd say do it on common rounds in increments of 100yds. But it might be interesting to see it on some of the new heavy-for-caliber loadings like 80.5gr FullBore in NAS3 cases or 85gr Match burners in the same. I've got a theory, but I'd like to see what the data says on it to be sure. |
