Recently, my friends and I taught a new shooter aged 17. In Three Hours, this slightly Built girl Went from shooting SubSonic .22 Pistol suppressed from A to steel ringing and knocking down Small tree stumps at Twenty Paces A with Kimber in 10mm Auto. Watching her shoot this powerful gun with easy competency was fun. Shooting high-power loads from a subcompact Glock 31 I used to own gave me the memory of great torque and recoil, yet a teenage girl shot the same caliber with no great effort. How could that be?
Curious about the increase of power from .22 subsonics to 10mm, I looked up the ballistics by brand and found something curious: the mighty 10 isn't always as mighty as I remembered it.

Nothing beats the venerable 1911...
ReplyDelete45 ACP knocks 'em down every time...
;)
Recently, I have tried to make some penetrators...
Took some masonry nails and ground off the heads.
Drilled holes in the bullets on a drill press using a custom drilled wood clamp to hold the bullet...
Mounted the nails in the holes with a drop of super glue.
Voila, 'sabot' rounds. Should penetrate almost anything within 20 yards.
They sure do a job on tree trunks... awesome penetration ability.
Sounds good and I have two 45's.
