115 Nuke

[mdi]

Jes wonderin'. I found expansion threshold velocities for the 124 gr Nuke (1100 fps) but not for the 115 gr Nuke. I found a fairly full bottle of HS-6 and am looking for the optimum velocity needed for the 115 Nuke. I've got a new Taurus G3, a Taurus 906 and 500 115 Nukes. Wanna put some loads together. Might add CFE pistol ...

Is there a question here, or just braggin’ about 500 bullets and enough primers to send them off?

Second sentence states "and am looking for the optimum velocity needed for the 115 Nuke". Try this; what is the velocity at which the 115 gr. Nuke expands?

I'd send Jake Wilcox an email and get a good starting point for them. They're so new I'll bet no one has had much of a chance to play with them.

What is a 115 Nuke? I take it as some kind of specialized bullet, right?

It's a particle physics theory based on Boson-p particle wave transformations. The Lorentz transformation, 1-1-5 Neutronic (nuke), is a linear transformation. It may include a rotation of space; a rotation-free Lorentz transformation is called a Lorentz boost. In Minkowski space - the mathematical model of spacetime in special relativity - the Lorentz transformations preserve the spacetime interval between any two events. This property is the defining property of a Lorentz transformation. They describe only the transformations in which the spacetime event at the origin is left fixed. They can be considered as a hyperbolic rotation of Minkowski space. The more general set of transformations that also includes translations is known as the Poincaré group.
Nah, just pullin' yer leg. It's a new JHP 9mm bullet from RMR.

Yep. They are the new 115 megaton nuclear projectiles for my Atomic Cannon I picked us as military surplus 2 years ago at auction...

115 grain lung blower out of your body er..

 

[mdi]

My "lung loads" are the 124 gr RMR old style HPs. I laod some to 3149 fps with IMR 4064 with a small pistol primer. Good outta my Taurus 906...

Does the spp give you better es.

I like "The Jersey Bullet" put out by Federal, "105gr. Guard Dog" for such tasks. It's the kinder-gentler, made for civilian use lung remover. That and the old Remington Golden Saber. The old non-bonded jacket model that tended to decompose on impact, not the newer, better, mean-twitterer, bonded bullet that actually worked as advertised.

The product page has some details regarding expansion and penetration at 1100 and 1000 fps:

"The result in ballistics gel is pretty impressive. At 1100 FPS we’re getting about 14″ of penetration with a diameter of about .630″ in total expansion. At 1000 fps we are getting 16-17″ of penetration with a diameter of about .590″ in total expansion." -RMR 115gr Nuke product description

I bet if you ask they may have information for velocities outside that range.

I think you mean 115kt not 115mt.

 

[mdi]

Yep, that's my Atomic Annie. I keep her in the back yard

Velocity for expansion is exactly the same between the 115 and 124. It is literally the same exact bullet dimensionally. The only thing that changes is the weight and OAL.

 

[longdayjake]

What will change is the depth of penetration between the two. The 115 is lighter so it doesn't penetrate quite as far at the same velocity as the 124.

What the sectional density do you mean.

These look like a really nice hollowpoint for a good price. Now I wish I hadn't purchased so many berrys plated hybrid hollow points.
