[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1457990, member: 7999"] Yes it has everything to do with our patented baring surface, PDR. Before we made our own bullet we used the other premium bullets and had what we expected for copper fouling. Our PDR design was designed to give good rifling engagement but to minimize the hard contact in the grooves. Because our bands are a radius the amount of actual contact in the groove is very finite. The radius valleys are deeper than the bore dia so there is a place to deposit the engraved copper. Frankly we have far less copper fouling than was expected. I guess one of the several benefits from our design that we did not realize that we were going to get. The request for the softer than normal from the foundry that we get our copper from was a decision that it would be worth the extra copper fouling that would result for the improved terminal performance that we were looking for. We got the expected improvement on terminal performance with no increase in copper fouling. Life is good!!! The driving purpose behind our design was to solve the problem that mono copper bullets have. What dia to make them to seal the bore on every rifle with out having pressure issues in some and poor accuracy in others. PDR does this with flying colors. They are highly accurate in every rifle that is properly functional. There are very few rifles that need any tweeking to seating depth to get sub moa. They are simply easier to load than any other bullet on the market. Steve [/QUOTE]
