This morning this bullet was shot into the stack of carpet, plywood, water jugs. Range was 25 yard. Powder charge was 80g Blackhorn. Sabot was short black Harvester. Primer was W209.

The bullet was found in the last jug. The petal was found in the second jug.

The front jug was shredded, but there is two definite exit holes. One made by the bullet, and one by a petal. The second jug shows where the bullet went in, and where two petals, and maybe three went in. There is a hole where the bullet exited, and the top of one side is blown out.
 
No way around it, those CF's do some serious damage! The good thing about this bullet, anyone can use it regardless of twist. :yeah:

How many jugs you killed now Ron, you gotta be approaching your season limit... :lol: :lol: :lol: :yeah:
 
How much does the bullet weigh with out the petals.
