[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1203445, member: 33822"] I also agree that higher rotation rates/inertia will cause more dramatic bullet expansion. Great that you have some evidence to back that up. I'll always remember my dynamics professor in college and his story about how to convince people that rotational inertia is real... Whenever he had a student that didn't understand, he told them to go jack up the rear wheels of their car, get them spinning to about 50mph, and then grab onto one of the wheels with both arms as hard as they could. Don't think anybody was dumb enough to try but it got the point across. [/QUOTE]
