I got a sample (4 bullets) in an assortment of sizes to figure out which size my rifle wanted. It ended up taking the .500" Thor Bullet.

These are Solid copper conicals with a hollow base that flares out and grips the rifling. The head of the bullet is also hollow and of course, The plastic tip is shoved into that hole.

The blue color in the base of the bullet is just color coding for the size of the bullet. This one for instance is .503" Dia. Much to big for any of my rifles.

.500" Thor started into the muzzle of my CVA Mountain Stalker .50cal Loaded with 90gr 3f Goex.

First shot @ 20 yards, off hand into my sand trap.

Thor plowed through this cement like sand mixture. This is only half of the actual sand that was in the bucket. The Thor blew that other half into chucks and exited my bucket.

My next test was with the .501" Thor and it was a Super Tight fit. So tight, i had to use a small hammer and pound it down onto the powder. This rifle wants only the .500" Thor!!

Now i figured a nice seasoned 9" log of cedar would catch it as its caught every other bullet ive shot into. This was at 5 yards with the same load.

Two Shots, Two Exits through tough material :shock:

I plan on building a new sand trap thats 24" long and 12" Square to see if i can catch them the next time i get some to test out.

This bullet does seem to be an execellent bullet and left me in shock after only 2 shots.
