[QUOTE="CatShooter, post: 141332, member: 7"] [b]Re: Eyes Wide Open............[/b] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] alloy content of the core & jacket thickness. [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] thicker jackets and higher antimony content [/ QUOTE ] Now then there is some interesting information. I bet it is more difficult to make an accurate bullet with harder cores and thicker and harder jackets. I doubt that the core "melts". I suspect that it gets soft and slips inside the jacket plus loses tensile strength, deforms and the rotational spin goes bad and rips it apart at the rifling creases. [/ QUOTE ] That's what I think too... . [/QUOTE]
