Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Fragmentation velocity of 69gr ???
Posted: 5/23/2005 6:52:08 AM EDT
Has anyone determined what that is?  I looked and 69gr loadings are mentioned as a good performer but all the charts omit that round.  Only 68gr bullets.  Now I assume the jacket construction might be different between Hornady and Sierra, so I don't just want to take the 68gr number.

Has anyone tested this directly?

They are about the same (68 & 69gr): 2300-2400 fps is the fragmentation floor.
