150 gr Walterhog Solid

The video is of our 150 grain solid.

The target was actually shot with the exact same bullet, but with a hollow point.

Same program, I only disabled the drilling part, as someone asked for solids, when I took the video.

It is not something I like to do very often, as I have to disable the coolant, so that I can take a video.

I run the machine at a slower speed, then adjust it in software to normal speed afterwards.

I do this to avoid damage to the cutting tools.

Rifle was a Robler Titan 6.

Load was 47 grains of VARGET and Federal 210M primers in RWS brass.

5 shots at 100 yards in our underground shooting range.

Cool video

Fun to see.

Thanks Saeed. I still do .224 jacketed, 357 lead, and .429 jacketed bullets from Corbin dies. Your bullets are the bee's knees. Be Well, Packy.

Saeed, I would think in Dubai that automobiles rusting is a problem. If you know someone that does auto body work, they could use those filings from your lathe. Body putty comes in two parts--the putty and the hardener. If you mix those filings in the putty and then add the hardener it will fill a large hole easier than putty alone. It can be sanded easily.

Outstanding Video,,very cool,,Thanks!

Great video, Thanks. Brian

Nicely done. Will you use that bullet to hunt ?

Yes.

This is the same basic design I made years ago.

I make all calibers from this design, and have hunted with them extensively.

Others have taken them all over the world.

They work very well, just any of the commercial mono metals.

If anyone tells you any kills better than others, he is lying!

Yes that sounds right. Since I have been using the Barnes TSX I have become a believer. Well built Monos are as good as it gets in my opinion.

I don't know about that bullet but I sure would like to have that machine plus the knowledge to use it!


what does it cost to make each bullet?

CNC tec is da bomb! Maybe I should try making some on my mini-lathe. Cool video Saeed.
