[QUOTE="CMP70306, post: 2315354, member: 36999"] Straight from Josh’s fingers over on the hide. —— [USER=99746]@coldboremiracle[/USER] 's impact tests on animals looks like they hit going about 1800fps give or take from what I know about the shot. They opened up well and penetrated a lot of tissue and bone. They don't petal out to 2x or 3x the size at low velocities, if they did they would explode on contact at shorter ranges. They are designed to be shot into heavy structure on big deer species and other big, strong game. Anchoring the animal with 2 broken shoulders is possible with this bullet family from point blank to past 1000yd, the goal being to hit bones and spall out the soft tissue between the heavy bone. ———— He made another comment somewhere else about shooting behind the shoulder but I couldn’t find it. I bought a box of the 6.5’s and the 30s to try when they were first announced but after that I’ve shied away from using them on game and went back to the Hammers that I know expand on lung shots.
