First test for new bullets
« on: March 05, 2004, 06:01:19 AM »
Omega and I had the opportunity to put the bullets that we are helping develop to the test last week. Here are the results! I shot mine at less than 20 yards and Omega took his at nearly 100 yards. Things look good so far. Both hogs were shot using three Pyrodex pellets and a 250-grain bullet.

Less than 20 yards, I should smile!  :) I have your sabot on film hitting the hog! Pretty accuate but not much penetration with that 13 grain MMP sabot.  :wink:
Should I show the near fatal shot by our buddy?

Grouse,
Its a heavier than lead, non toxic, unjacketed bullet made by the inventors of Hevi Shot.

Thanks Omega,
          I am just wondering because i
like non jacketed bullets for deer hunting. I do love the Hevi-shot,
shotgun shells very much Goose hunting. Keep us posted.  :grin:
