[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1151007"] You got me started on the heat soaking problem. Barrel friction will heat the jacket. Air friction will keep the temperature up. Eventually the heat will migrate to adjoining materials. So... I too am now in the "not just air friction" camp. If barrel friction, powder heat and air friction have the bullet body exiting the barrel at +400 degrees, the heat soak and air only have to go another 35 degrees to effect the tip. There are so many inputs... [/QUOTE]
