[QUOTE="barnesuser28, post: 798897, member: 43468"] Well you can do it a couple different ways but none will give you exactly the same results as shooting them into game. You can wet newspapers and shoot them with a reduced load at close range, or at long range (would have to be way out there to hit 1300 fps). You could also save some milk jugs and fill them with water and shoot them with a reduced load at close range. For a reduced load i would pick up some trail boss and follow the directions given on the hodgdon website, seat a bullet and fill the case of with powder to where the end of the boattail would be. Then shoot it and chronograph the velocity to know where you are at. IMO elkaholic is the king of bullet testing. :D [/QUOTE]
