[QUOTE="TheLongRanger83702, post: 1158369, member: 88760"] personally I think these claims are a bunch of booze. I just got their catalog last night and read about their claims. They state that the melting occurs after 400yds. Well? My bullets velocity at that point has decreased by 500fps from 2765 to 2244 fps. And gets slower still beyond that. If these tips were going to melt the greater friction is experienced right after existing the barrel. NOT 400+yds later. It just doesn't add up. Oh... They don't state what velocities that cause this melting either. Maybe with a . 22-250 @ 4000fps they melt but I don't see this @,2000 or less. Just my opinion. Later... [/QUOTE]
