[QUOTE="Canhunter35, post: 1364308, member: 101677"] Actually the eldx is one of the bullets Ive noticed do this along with vmaxs, amaxs, and nosler ballistic tips. There performance is fine when it really cold, but much more like a monolithic hunting bullet that expands and punches through. But if it’s warm, they seem to ‘detonate’ and do a lot more damage. Yeah, I was wondering about super heating of bullet as it’s fired, but taking a frozen bullet, and its under heat for only moment, how much heat could it uptake? Then I was wondering what is the wind chill effect at Mach 2 and it’s -20 is? [/QUOTE]
