[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1527187, member: 92702"] I wouldn't do it again, with current tech. Really limits the shots you can take. You can approach 4000 with many with lite bullets. I would use solid copper. I tried it with an STW and lite bullets and an Ackley improved 8mm magnum. Both loaded way too hot. The 8 was with 175 gr and it was a bad idea. I think if I wanted to try the concept again I would use a smaller gun. Maybe start with a 26 nosler or a 6-300 why and 100gr copper bullets. Might not be quite as destructive. [/QUOTE]
