Any ideas for a material to test bullets for terminal performance?
I used wet phone books, but sierra said it's too hard.

Hello,
Cooled wet oatmeal. Then reheated to 100 to represent body temps.

Temperature doesn't have anything to do with it- bullets can't tell the difference between 60 and 100 degrees.
Newspaper, sand, oatmeal, etc, is not going to show anything about soft tissue disruption.
I don't feel like dealing with that stuff.... the bullet test tube is a wax
and that seems like less to deal with. But that's 70 bucks.
I was reading about wet sand and saw dust.
