    I noted when terminal ballistics was testing hollow points with jacked bullets on pistol rounds, some of the pictures of round soft nose un jacket bullets actually had some really nice mushrooms. LBT used lead with many high power pistol rounds with great effects. And again we see the same thing. The hardness of the lead compound and the shape seems to be a big key.
    LBT was able to add gas checks to eliminate leading and stripping from high velocity to rifle speeds.
    Great work!!

      Fantastic shooting ability, I’ve watched you shooting over 500m in the past ; but lead into water? You seem to use it as a ranging medium, not cool in the 21st century. I shoot invasive species. You are just maximising citrus fruit growth for 50 m along a small edge of the industrial farming style. Please let the little fellas have a meal . I once knew an old guy who used to live in East Africa and he used to hunt lions with a spear. Not joking, just a spear . Give that a go and I’ll subscribe as will a couple of million more followers 👍

    Speaking from experience, you're going to regret every minute of unprotected UV exposure. It will all appear with a vengeance around 50 (comes faster than you can anticipate) Expect hundreds, if not thousands of cryo-surgery spot removals for precancerous keratosis. My advice would be to wear wide brim hats and long sleeve wet shirts which you can spray with water (especially your arms) to keep cool. It works far better than short sleeves and sunblock. White skin can burn in 10 minutes, probably faster in SA with its high UV index.

    For shooting slugs I would absolutely want the ability to load longer slugs in the magazine. For a rifle as versatile as the Impact, designing it to hold much thicker magazines, especially for .30 caliber, would be ideal. Pellets or shorter slugs could use a different probe and magazine. My not-.22 airgun is a Benjamin Bulldog that normally fires slugs that are nearly 19mm long. It handles shorter slugs and pellets just fine. I’d love to see an Fx design like that.

    I wonder if you have tried with the slugs you use what in the States is called dieseling? Just a little Vaseline petroleum jelly in the pocket in the back of the slug actually improves it's shooting stats. delivering more ft. pounds to the target.

    • @rickoshea8138
      @rickoshea8138 3 роки тому

      That works with spring air rifles, not PCPs. The sudden compression in a "springer" heats the air enough to ignite combustible lubricants. The heat generated when compressing air for a PCP is rejected at the compressor.
      You get more power with dieseling springers, but it is very hard on their seals and spring. A clown-show that damages your airgun pretty quickly.
      Getting consistent dieseling is difficult and pellets are not accurate if you shoot them too fast. So, just say no to deliberate dieseling.
