2.NBT- 17.6
3.HIB- 16.9
4.HV - 14.8 -GS Custom HV
5.NAB- 14.3
6.NP - 11.8
7.TSX- 9.3
8.LRT- 1.5 -Lost River Technologies

Those were measured values, taking length of cavity multiplied by width by height (the last two being the same number).

Not knocking the TSX, I thing they are good bullets, just in my testing other things made bigger holes.

And yes, I have pictures.


Doesn't that tube use wax as a medium? Doesn't seem to me to me to be a reasonable facsimile of flesh. JMHO.
