[QUOTE="T3ninja, post: 2236548, member: 95079"] Here’s a small test I did myself using 5lb gummy bears from amazon. It’s a VERY small sample of 1. But here is the info and result... using a 196 hammer hunter, I loaded it in my .300 BLK and the impact velocity on the gummy bears was 1550FPS.. quite a bit less than the “1800fps” that most use as a guideline, or are comfortable with etc. I’m not arguing this number, saying it’s wrong/right. I don’t care I’m indifferent. This is just what I did in my own personal “expansion” test. This bullet fully expanded, and shed 2 “petals” all while penetrating into the 5th gummy bear. The other bullet in the picture was fired from my .300 WM at over 3200 FPS. It penetrated into the 8th gummy. Shed all petals.
