Fury 44 caliber 250g Bullet

[ronlaughlin]

Bullet was shot through carpet, plywood, and into the bottles. Bottles were set out 25 yard from the rifle. Rifle was loaded with 80 grain Blackhorn powder.

Bullet went through every bottle, was caught by the stack of magazines.

That answers that question....

What was the powder charge? Or did I miss it in the post?

Says 80 grains of blackhorn. Assuming a volume measure.

 

[sabotloader]

Yes - volume - guess I didn't see it all - I will go back and look again!!! Geez you are right! I am blind

This bullet reminds me of the Barnes original.

I would have thought just looking at the bullet that it would expand more than that. Pretty interesting.

Fury makes different cup thicknesses for different uses. Please let us know what was the thickness on these.

 

[Chris W.]

Well, that's surprising. With that exposed lead tip, I expected a bit more expansion than that.

Bonded bullets need speed for best expansion. I have used 40cal Fury bonded in an sml at around 2460fps mv with great results on deer. wish they had small hollowpoint bullets similar profile to a Barnes 275xpb.

Funny, Nosler says bonding lowers expansion thresholds requiring less speed to expand properly.

Another small HP failure, most like this fail in your 50grV test .
- this 80grV is 17-1800fps.
Thanks
