[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 165533, member: 1007"] It is funny you should mention that Dave! I have actually tested various bullets in a box filled with sand and water jugs not at long range but at projected velocities for 1000 yards. Sure the velocities are not perfect but very very close. I have actually stopped using certain bullets for 1000 yard hunting and taken an interest in others because of their abilities to either expand or not expand at those velocities. You did bring out a very valid point though because most dont go that far to see what the reaction of their bullets are at the desired ranges or velocities. A bullet that wont expand at the range we send it despite mathematically producing 1500 pounds of energy isnt the best thing for the game we hunt. [/QUOTE]
