Barnes 250g Expander MZ

[ronlaughlin]

The BARNES 50cal 250gr EXP-MZ BULLET HPFB was provided by anonymous.

The distance between the rifle, and the horse was 25 yard. The load was 80 grain Blackhorn Powder.

The bullet went through the carpet/plywood, blew up the front jug, blew up the second jug, was captured by the third jug. The bullet hit the back of the third jug hard enough to leave a mark. The fourth, and fifth jugs were/are undamaged.

This last photo shows the bullet shot, and caught March 8 using 50 grain Blackhorn, and the bullet shot, and caught this morning, using 80 grain Blackhorn.

Looks good - interesting with +600fps MV that it only penetrated 1 additional water jug.
The 1st photo of the large HP is a guarantee it will expand.
If the same bullet in 300gr is tested - it would be interesting as to the penetration.

Thanks for the testing. That is the bullet I use for hunting. Performance looks outstanding.
