[QUOTE="fariswm, post: 201481, member: 11234"] I greatly appreciate this input. No- I am not trying to reinvent the wheel. We will be using Tungsten, but not in a cintered form, nor bonded together with waxes and such. There are real issues with the bullets that have been done to date with tungsten. They are either hard as a rock, loose as a goose, or completely fall apart when they hit something. I want to see bullet performance. If we can't achieve that then we won't be making any bullets. We are not doing armor piercing. We will, for the most part, leave that up to the depleted uranium crowd. I am looking to create a bullet that expands like a lead core bullet, retains a substantial amount of its original weight, but has a substantial increase in relative weight. I'm not just working on the 7mm. That was given just as an example. We would apply this to a broad range of bullets out of the chute. We are also looking at supporting the current industry with our technology once developed. I have the support of several people who are professionals at the ballistics and design stuff. But good old common sense from the shooting crowd is as important as anything else- thus the thread. [/QUOTE]
