My respectful comment. Your respectful opinion please.
Multiple/more than two pressed grooves AKA crimping grooves on a bullet refer.
With a bullet/s, e.g. a jacketed 500gr 458/350 gr 375, encased in lead, and the likes in mind.
And for the speed and comparative cheapness in manufacturing. For that matter perhaps in a mono metal bullet as well.
But especially the solid. For my question/idea could adversely affect the performance of an expanding bullet. Although can the following suggestion still be engineered into the suggested design.
In stead of only one crimping groove, can the originally placed grove for crimping, and more be pressed into bullets.
My reasoning is that with less barrel contact, could the barrel-to-bullet friction be quite a bit less and bullet speed, for those who require this, be increased, with, and for my requirement, a lighter amount of report to one’s shoulder. At least for me who do not appreciate excessive recoil.
A second comment is that these additional crimped grooves need to be very shallow. Only say 12 or 14 thou in order to only be free of the rifling. And not necessarily impede on bullet strength.
I’m not into the physics side of the matter.
Thank you for your participation.
