[QUOTE="M Rosslee, post: 1194056, member: 94998"] Very interesting. I have noted a few things and studied different bullet effects out of interest. Perhaps you will be able to shed light on a subject for me. When you recover a jacket in amongst organs or soft tissue, is there a tendency for the lead core to have maintained shot direction whilst fragmenting or does it branch off unpredictably? Secondly, when a bullet adopts a certain.angle of attack at muzzle exit, I understand that a certain twist.is necessary to overcome the tipping moment of the centre of pressure over the centre of gravity. Now, do I understand correctly that the further apart the COP and COG, the better the form of.the bullet and the higher the BC? I suppose different velocities and bullet lengths require different gyroscopic intensities/frequencies to stabilisie them.in flight. So length, velocity and twist effect stability more than mass?
