I Struck Oil! Hammer Bullets

Learn something new all the time. One thing I did not know was that the hollow points on (well on my Hammer Hunters anyway) are filled with oil. I was curious to see how far down the hollow point went into the bullet, so I stuck a straightened paper clip in the hole and oil oozed out! Hmmmm, isa wondered! I checked a few more and they all had oil in them. I saw the Hammer Bullets video showing a smoke trail and stating the vapor trail was actually smoke from burnt oil in the tip. I figured somebody accidently got gun oil/lube in that bullet. Nope, they must all have oil in them.

Out of all the posts, articles, and online research I've conducted, I have not seen this brought up yet. So, my questions:

Is the oil just merely left over from bullet making/machining the hole?
Is the oil in the holes to initiate hydrostatic opening of the tip/petals?
It magically increase the BC by ten fold lol.
 
Is the oil toxic like lead?
What about the burnt oil? Is it a carcinogenic?

Maybe the lead bullets are toxic crowd can shed some light on the petroleum inclusion.
Jumping Jiminy Cricket, don't give them any ideas.


By the time they're done we won't be able to burn the tips of our naturally-harvested freely-released shedded limbs to make our spears because the carbon on the tip is toxic. Nevermind the fact we're a carbon based organism also 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Time to ban humans... the ultimate end game!

No joke, I looked at my bag of wood pellets for my smoker the other day. And I quote:

"Contains wood dust, a product know to cause cancer in the state of California"

It's WOOD????

As long as it only causes cancer in California, since we don't live there, we are safe to use....I just used some to smoke a salmon, it was gooooooooooood!

Oh for crying out loud!!!!!

Wood dust now? If wood dust presents as a major problem…it suggests a lack of real problems, probably a good thing🤣.
