A very good question...OK... I've been holding off... just looked at the latest brassfetcher results... and it's still there.
Why pick a bullet with notorious jacket failures to demonstrate your invention?
The reason we chose that brand/design, as well as some other, well, 'debatable' performance brands, is for that very reason.
I figured if we can take a lower-end bullet design, and make that same bullet more reliable, then it's a given to think what porting would do for the top of the line ammunition. And in fact, that's been going on in our test sets; while we did our first test shots with cheesy ammo, we've also been poppin' Speer, Remington, Winchester, etc.(Go back to the Photo gallery on the website for those results), and we have another gel-test scheduled with brassfetcher, using Federal .40S&W LEO.
This will be 1-Control, 1-HC Bare Gelatin, 1-HC Gelatin w/4 layer Denim.
(sorry it isn't more shots folks, but we're working from a super-tight budget here. We test what we can, as we can)
He already has the bullets, just waiting for a chrono repair return...(reason the chrono is out for repair, is that John likes to shoot his chronographs (3rd one). He said it was a "ricochet" , so I of course believe him... ;/
it should be this week.
I'll post when I get the pix and report.
