Nope, no chrono
I tried to catch one in a water jug, but............
I need to round up some jugs I guess.

Yes, you are expected to believe it.Am I expected to believe that the base of a tumbling bullet is making clean cookie-cutter holes,
Yes, you are expected to believe it.
There is no reason the bullets would be tumbling just because the hollow base expanded.
Think of it as a tiny little badminton shuttlecock.
The expanded base creating drag on the rear end & rifling spin keeps it flying point first.
Tumbling is the only reason I can give. They are keyholing.
I fully intend to search my local stores this weekend while I'm out and about to pick some up. I'll most certainly try it in a couple of rifles, my 22 pistol and my 22 revolver. None are as short barreled as yours, but I'm curious to see if I get the same results.Apparently, I'm not the only one who has experienced this with this particular ammo.
I did a search on that Aguila ammo and found quite a few people experienceing the same thing
I don't know that barrel length is the whole thing, My Walther P22 didn't do it.I fully intend to search my local stores this weekend while I'm out and about to pick some up.

Edit:: And I'll make sure my 38 and some appropriate ammo are lying next to the target so that the conspiracy theorists can speculate away.
I read your post...you had some skeptics too it would seemSame ammo, different gun, same result. I even had other people shoot just to make sure I wasn't crazy. I think I posted about this a few years ago.

ThanksConhusker I am glad to see you proved yourself. A lot of poster were questioning your honestly and you took the high road and agreed that it was a strange thing. A lot of people would have gone a different route and turned this thread into something like a playground name calling.
Impressed with the way you handled the accusations and am hapy to see you proving your honesty!

But then the Walther doesn't have as tight of a bore.
I'm kinda anxious for the weather to straighten up a little so I can try them in a few different guns.Well in that case it should be interesting. My buckmark has a tighter bore than my old worn out high point sentinel revolver.

I have about 400 rounds of those left I think
if one will do the same I cant wait to try it on small game.
