Well my bullet impact test might not be a nice and neat as Bullet or JD338 but it got the job done and as I knew I would be I am pleased with my results. My impact media was 4, 1 liter pop bottles filled with water and froze plus a 2x2 box filled with loose sand for a final bullet trap. Muzzle velocity was 2960 and impact media was at a distance of 20 or so yards. I recovered the bullet 2/3 the way into the loose sand box. I washed and weighed the bullet and it came in 141.0 grains which is 64% weight retention. Not to bad if I ever have to shoot a frozen elk.
