Common sense vs reality....part II....recovered bullets...

That is surprisingly little expansion. I'd have thought that soft staged bullet would have opened ip more than that.

Here are some of my cast Keith hollow points shot into water jugs from my centinniel.

They were cast of 20:1 and driven fairly hard from the little J Frame. The mangles one dove into the gravel the jugs were sitting on but started to expand. Nothing like shooting a J frame from prone position!
