while not commercially available, 100g and 125g .224 bullets exist. i have several thousand of the 100g.
I doubt it
, if this is the KABOOM I remember from a few months back, the "bullet" in question appeared to be a section of solid brass/copper
rod with a flat tail end, and "chamfered" front end (like a 45deg angle taper to a sharp point) and length over an inch long. In other words, not something you, me, or even a crazy reloader would consider even a "boolit". Somebody said it would be impossible for an automated loader to process this kind of object, anyway. I believe the consensus was that sabotage at the factory line, or by a crazy nutjob at the store, was likely the culprit.
I'll see if I can find the image of the "projectile" they pried out of the barrel. I recall it being a real
WTH? moment for me
EDIT: Heeeere we go...and it is a doozy;
I copied the image to my photobucket, since I don't think I can post someone else's attached files, hope that's okay, Soupshooter
"It may even become the New 30-30"
Wait, I thought that's what the 7.62x39 became, after the 30-30 met with an untimely demise. Did something happen to the 7.62, as well? Tragedy all around us
, LOL
