Even at 2600fps @ the muzzle?



'Raider, you are probably right. I know that even explosive bullets at slower velocities will hold together better than at higher velocities. And granted, my experience with SST's was at a little higher velocities, but those experiences tell me to use something else so I do........Just me. I'm just an old guy who is set in my ways. Once burned, always afraid of the fire.
