The bullets being used plays a huge factor. Hard Cast bullets are not the preferred bullet for penetrating an Elephants skull for instance, too much bone. Meplat and nose shape play a huge role in penetration, etc. Many variables


That's true. I wonder how long before someone tests Woodleigh's hydrostatically stabalized .45/70 bullet. I'd be curious to see how it stacks up with the heavy, wide meplat cast iron bullets. Sadly we are not allowed to use those Woodleighs on game up here, so it won't be me doing the testing!
