Jordan,

Interesting observations. I used hide, water, and fresh bones for my test. If I understand you correctly, because of the reduced rotational speed, my 2000 fps velocity impact test actually produces less damage than a full velocity load would at the range I am simulating with the reduced velocity.

That would be another reason to get a 1 in 8 or faster twist .22, 6mm, or 6.5mm. Thanks! I can always use another reason to get a different rifle.

My friends and I have had no problem with the monmetal bullets on light game like antelope. However, I don't shoot to very long distances (400m+) like some can and do on a regular basis.
