It probably involves one of more logical fallacies, but I'm much too tired to look up which one(s).

On hard cast, I've never read a single post of someone recovering a deformed FMJ from any tested material other than a rock hit round dug out of dirt.
If a copper FMJ doesn't deform even on bone, what does hard cast different? Absolutely nothing at all. In fact, hard cast can fracture/shatter. Here's a Hornady bullet advertised with a thick copper jacket so it won't deform: https://www.hornady.com/bullets/hand...0-gr-fmj-fp#!/ |

I think the ammo companies try not to produce a factory load that will punch a vest. The right FMJ bullet fired from a 357 may be considered armor piercing.

I see you live in Illinois. I never had any problem ordering ammo when I lived in Wood Dale - 10 years ago.
Only bears I saw in Illinois were at Soldier Field or in a Zoo.

Back from a long absence . . . . .
Some may have missed me or just as soon I stayed away Anyways A 357429 cast at about 18-20 bnh on top a healthy dose of 2400 will take care of badduns'. If you don't reload https://www.buffalobore.com/index.ph...t_detail&p=541 might be the ticket in a Ruger . . . . RJ |
