[QUOTE="fordy, post: 2731462, member: 120504"] Gday GL Shhh George or the secret will get out 😜🤪😇 In all seriousness backcountry it’s not just going fast it’s getting the bubble & shape-charge correct to get this outcome of a consistent bangflop or a reduced run @ a minimum but speed dosent concern the majority of hammers ( odd one the bubble goes to sideways & needs to be slowed to more modest velocity of 3k 101 bo as example ) Now I don’t know anything about the 169 & your likely shot ranges you normally hunt to or max range What I do know is most people will do better by dropping a little weight to a lot on the average The hard part is clearing our heads You were in a pretty good velocity bracket @ impact & that’s a extended run no doubt So what can we learn from this as these are the ones we do Could we have a little more details to fill in the blanks please I’m having trouble seeing the picture in enough detail as I am using my phone & I haven’t come to the realisation I actually need glasses yet lol So moving forward It looks like a narrower than usual wound from what I expect with hammers & looks more like a Barnes type wound ( I’m not picking on Barnes just classify all mushroom monos as Barnes type wounds but if I need to I can adjust & I’ll break down or generalise to stop problems occurring hopefully) but I’ve also seen these in the field with hammers & usually these type of wounds are more suited to bigger critters but when it’s a pill that contains a great bubble & shape change it dosent matter what size critter ( within reason ) you just watch the magic happen ( recent tests from my son that’s relayed to Steve & Brian ) showed some interesting things & the knowledge & the bar is getting lifted once again Could you answer these please & anything else you think is important So is the wound the same in ea Lung & are the lungs hit in the back half ? Did it strike a rib on way in ? Where the pill started to open ? Where the pill basically shed its petals ? Size of exit ? Did petals exit ? On recent discussions with Steve & Brian I personally like the way they are heading now I won’t Divulge but it ties in here also I believe but it’s mainly in relation to the prototype Sorry to be a pain & if you don’t know that’s fine I will just keep plugging away to settle my curiosity Cheers [/QUOTE]
