I have seen light bullets blow up on contact causing massive damage and even blown shoulders. The same bullet would be fine out to distance. When I was reloading for my 30-06 I had this problem. Deadly accurate but far too fast! Velocity was outside the recommended speeds. I now use 100% copper!

Yes I have seen that .to be honest I use a heavier bullet if I am stalking ,or if out shooting foxes I used to use 75grain ballistic tip when hit its a deff kill makes no odd s on vermin, but found this new ammo it is bit heavier more drop but still good on old Charlie .

I've spent time around lots of nice guns; modern custom builds, high end factory guns, new and old English best shotguns and rifles and what was my favourite? My Weihrauch 100S! PCPs rock. I honestly enjoyed pinging bottle tops at 50 yards with the HW100 more than drilling the middle out of the v-bull at 100 yards with my 6.5x47.
