Bullet hole in plywood shows yaw?
Bullet destroyed first two bottles; went through next four bottles, and was caught by mazazine stack.
Bullet not engraved by rifling. Appears it was sized too small? This shooter hates to pound the bullet down to the powder. This bullet went down to the powder nice, and easy. Wouldn't want it to be harder to push to the powder.
