[QUOTE="fordy, post: 2698378, member: 120504"] Gday ucsdryder On documentation I would like to see that please & hope it includes the pill & twist & the resistance that was encountered @ what velocity Yes some mono proponents do only talk that side & if you are only impacting @ high impact nothing wrong with that exactly the same as a c&c guy only impacting below 2100 as a general example But most monos really arnt that good below 2400 anyway especially when you get that between the ribs shot that happens A few will reliably expand well below this & time after time in flesh only & no hint of the struggle to expand with hammers along with Leigh’s , cutting edge , apex , badlands , OEP gpa & a few more But it’s not expanding that some of the brands above struggle @ it’s how they kill that divides the pack & on your between the ribs to shoulder , quarter too & away etc across various impact velocities multiple times that we get a picture of where a pill sits on a scale of killing efficiency & really only 3 mono brands kill fairly well around that 1800 plus mark but below this a lot a real lot is left to be desired but also when you enter into a few scenarios that play out in the field that also separates those 3 I’m not saying a hammer won’t fail as every pill will ( even this prototype I’m testing will one day ) but from my results I’m yet to see a pattern even slightly of hammers not expanding @ low velocity & extremely low resistances yes it will happen but if we look @ why it has occurred it’s was a pretty easy fix now we know a bit more of what went on I look forward to the documented evidence & hope we can all learn a bit more Cheers [/QUOTE]
