In the period when I did not have a smaller caliber weapon, I used the SAX bullets in caliber 9.3x62 to hunt for small deer and wolves. With weight 155 grain, the initial speed is 3150 feet per second !! And energy is the same as bullets weighing 285 Grain. The petals are really divided when...

I continue the experiments. I will experience two more options for bullets - with 4 small petals (diametr 20 mm after opening) and with a sharp nose.

Interesting. In the fall, I also plan to try my 0.458 Lott on the moose. I chose a 350 Gran bullet from Speer. The farthest shot along the moose never approaches us at 200 meters, more often than 30-90 meters. On the calculator, it is enough to shoot a weapon at 170 meters and then the...

The results of the shooting of lead bullets: With a copper coating did not fly, a large scatter, even took photos. 405 grain painted: 12.5 grain of gunpowder - 45 mm/100 meters, 955-975 f/s 13.0 grain of gunpowder - 40 mm/100 meters, 980-995 f/s 13.5 grain of gunpowder - 40 mm/100 meters...

In order to make a shot even cheaper, I prepared lead bullets weighing 405 and 370 grains. I will load them into cases 300WM after fireforming. These bullets will experience two types - painted and covered with copper. They can be used for entertaining shooting and shooting small predators...

So, the cases is ready. Previously, I would have to buy cases, bullets and other things in a store in the USA or Europe. Now, thanks to the sanctions, I buy brass or cuprum in Russia, rent a CNC machine in Russia and receive, for example, cases at a price of 0.48 euro per piece) or a bullet at...

This is not at all like 22 .. Due to the large mass, the bullet very slowly loses speed even at a large distance. Please look at the table that I placed above.

Yes, on CNC machines.

Yes, Pulsar Trail 2 XQ50LRF

Also made a bullet of 575 Grain. It looks scary ..)

water canister, 457 meters .. I had to aim almost into the sky)

I would buy) but they won’t be sent to Russia) Therefore, the cases will also have to sharpen yourself ..

From ballistic calculator: Distance: The angle of place of target, degrees: 0.0 Cartridge: 474 subsonic Shot displacement: 0.0/0.0 cm Start. Speed adjusted in temperature, m/s: 305 Ballistic coefficient: 0.7 (G1)...

I plan to make an annular incision so that the petals would be separated at the place of fault, and the body of the bullet moved on

Now we can say for sure that from 458 Lott you can hunt for any beast on the planet)
