Bit of a disclaimer it will make you want the rocking horse shit pills to use also very good info around wound channels from a range of bullets
its a little hard to get into as the guy explains his background for 30 odd minutes

They are very hard to get and expensive when you can. Ive got enough but ration them to myself and use them on nothing but deer. Maybe @Kiwi Greg might be able to source some?

Possible but they are in very short supply in the US as well, im lucky i still have some Belmont to get though.

Midway and Creedmoor have them but will only ship to US address.

In any event there are plenty of other projectiles that all perform within a whisker; the heavy ELDM's and Targex. And the 52-60 grn Hammers (but spendy).

The best utility bullet I think is still the 80grn Targex. Excellent on deer and not too spendy for wallaby and things. Easy to get to shoot.

Great podcast, cheers

@199p Thanks for put up a link to Podcast 35 Bullet Ballistics. I've listened to it once, but need to listen again to try and retain more information. There is a lot of information! Interesting bit about how far under the skin a bullet expands.

From memory I recall you put up a second link (might have been the same link, one for YouTube, one for Apple) could you please epluy to this with the second link?

Cheers,

Hugh

Hey Hugh yes it is full of great information that shows what most people already know and goes into depth debunking some myths and giving reason why some bullets dont perform as well as others.

1st deer I seen that ran off was shot with a barns ttsx and this podcast explains why that would have happened as it was a great shot.
The owner sold that rifle the next day in disgust.

I have linked this podcast a few times for those who want to learn about terminal ballistics in a well-explained way.
