jwp did you recover any of the bullets from that white box ammo?The reason I asked was on deer other than completely broadside I could't seem to keep the jacket and core together.This deer was taken at 18yards with a quartering away shot and I had jacket core seperation and it did't seem to matter what the range was.

I had jacket-core separation on a Freedom Arms bullet that I used on a Gemsbok. The jacket was found in the right hindquarter and the core in the stomach. Those are tough bullets.

That was not in the least bit helpful. So all this is conjecture; sounds about right. If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out. | |||

I wouldn't knowly stand in front of a BB gun and niehter would that "DUDE" that made that statement. A rather worthless statemnt indeed. The real world wants real world data, the only type of date that is meaningfull. After all proclaiming an overly long for caliber bullet superior for large game without ever using it on lrage game is well, rather silly  _____________________________________________________ A 9mm may expand to a larger diameter, but a 45 ain't going to shrink Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened. - Winston Churchill | |||

Kind of curious: What's' wrong with an unstable, more then half inch long bullet, that hit's and tumbles? | |||

Not only does it hinder penetration, it may not go where you aim -- meaning that it could miss the vitals. "Ignorance you can correct, you can't fix stupid." JWP If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming. Semper Fidelis "Building Carpal Tunnel one round at a time" | |||

Who cares? It's still a nearly half ounce of lead, going very fast. Other folks design bullets to tumble, but, most of those folks have this thing called the Hague Convention to deal with. | |||

Who cares? Uh, probably the guy hunting with this bullet. "Ignorance you can correct, you can't fix stupid." JWP If stupidity hurt, a lot of people would be walking around screaming. Semper Fidelis "Building Carpal Tunnel one round at a time" | |||

 This obviously from someone who doesn't hunt with a handgun,or hunt period.If a bullet from a short or long gun tumbles it may never get where you need it."If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence,try orderin' someone else's dog around" unknown cowboy | |||

No. it's from someone that test shot a 500 grain, over an inch long, 45 caliber sabot @ 1800 fps. Unless the animal is huge, a tumbling 500 grain, .45 or .50 cal sabot is not ineffective. In fact, it dropped rats, chipmunks, squirels, mouse, rabbits, feral cats and dogs, and even suck ass, bulls@@@@ forum moderators. | |||

Oh really? When, pray tell, was this feat accomplished? I am most sure it occurred in your mind. Now, cease the profanity or I'm going to have to start zapping your posts.
