Most have zipped through, most have been effective quite quickly. But copper is always going to be hard. Sometimes it just doesn't open as well and penetrate as well as we hope.


I"ve seen those before, and I'm continually amazed, 225X flat base from 338 win mag used in AK at distances to 801 yards, and up to 10 foot plus bears... and all between, down to sitkas and never ever seen a failure to expand. Including shooting through alder trees 3-6 inches in diameter on accident....(not all my shooting, I'm only good for 3 shots out of that gun up there...)


We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
