[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2398379, member: 30902"] The problem with that is you'd probably need a solid titanium bullet just to keep it from flaming out. We actually had that problem with some cup and core .17 bullets that would separate from the jacket at about 50 yards and the lead just went "poof" in a little puff of smoke around a hundred. When my dad and his partner figured out they were probably running around 4600-4,800fps they decided to back things back down to around 4,000 fps and original Barnes X bullets solved the other problems.
