So every lead bullet that is designed to shed weight is the same? Some do it better than others.
I have yet to see you post any test results to of your own, yet you are an expert, so it seems, in bullet performance. You show a lot of copied photos and regurgitate commentary that is inaccurate. Energy dump for instance. Simply false.
I see @ButterBean offered you bullets. I'm good with that. I really don't want him paying for your testing. What is your testing method? What is your constant to compare to? What media do you intend to shoot into? I am fairly sure your intent would be to show poor results. Easiest way to do that is shoot them with instability.
You do actually shoot, right?
Just to be clear I did not ask him to do any testing, I asked him to kill something plain and simple and it has to be loaded with my method and my powder choice

@Petey308 dissect the lack of terminal performance from this Hammer that is designed for big game hunting yet it can make red mist out of a prairie dog.
They are in a class of their own.

WOW, I tried to make it past post one but to no avail, there are some serious holes in some of the theory!!
Why are you so sure of all of this? Good grief…

IBTL, Brother, I smell another (unnecessary) thread lock brewing.
Because small game like that lacks the body mass to hold together when rapid tissue displacement occurs. It comes apart and the result is fluids being strewn about.

That doesn’t mean Hammer bullets are in a class of their own. Many “big game bullets” do this, for the reason I just gave.
Even though I apparently don’t shoot, I killed this coyote with a 195gr TMK a few months ago at 40 yards and pink misted him and dropped him on the spot. And this first pic is the exit, which is mostly blood splatter. The fur will sew up nice for a wall hanger. I even do that part too

LOL! I agree -taken at 525Y with my .270 AI propelling the 175 Matrix VLD at 2993 FPS.Because small game like that lacks the body mass to hold together when rapid tissue displacement occurs. It comes apart and the result is fluids being strewn about.

Weird. I thought you also didn’t shoot
. Nice work, by the way. Too bad Matrix bullets had to sell out

Sorry, I forgot about that, my bad. I was hoping the new owner would re-engage in building rifle bullets, but something happened that prevented them from doing so; luckily, I acquired enough bullets (165s/175s) for the life of my barrelWeird. I thought you also didn’t shoot
