[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1194801, member: 7999"] I can't wait Roy. You kill me with anticipation. Did some quick calculations and I am guessing 1200y to 1500y will be the max working distance. We will see how good a guess I am. I know Roy did the same media test with the small 117g .270 at 300 yards and had the same results and similar penetration. That .270 was made from the same alloy as the big .375. When Roy gets around to the 307g .308 that one is of our preferred alloy. It has seemed over the years here on LRH that most guys like the explosive bullets that have fist size or bigger exit holes. These will most definitely do that. It is just not my preferred terminal performance. Thanks guys for the input. So far the frangible bullet guys have not said much. Keep the opinions coming. We need the input to make decisions on how much raw copper to have on hand and what type. Steve [/QUOTE]
