Alloy question for hunting use
« on: October 05, 2005, 05:02:59 PM »
As hunting season is almost upon us.  I would like to get some opinion on a good usable alloy.
 
 
First and foremost it has to expand without shattering.  
 
Launch velocity around 1700fps
 
Impact velocity around 1400 - 1600 fps
 
 
 
165gr  30 cal rifle.
 
220gr  35 cal rifle.
 
350gr  45 cal rifle.

Wheel weights, gas checked, and alox lube have worked well for me in the past.
