Is this it? (See pic) If so, the thread is still out there.
That is it. I searched and came up empty.
His forum is still around but he ran afoul of how bad people are on the webs. Hasn't been around it in almost a year now. For that matter he dropped off the face of the earth entirely is would seem.
i think he did that after u tube deleted several of them as too pro gun or something
the hollow base bullets are swaged paper patch bullets from buffalo arms.. i don't remember him mentioning designing any hollow base bullets,,, i love the baco version too in 45 cal at least (all i've tried)!! I doube i could cast one as good as these swaged pills.... I found a die from canada for a very similar bullet for "casting". kal tool & die,, guess your thinking of making something different?? those guys would probably have lots of experience with what you are wanting to ask? good luck!
I’ve used them in 3 flavors, 40, 45, and 50 now. I only have one rifle that seems to return significantly better accuracy than the grease grooved bullets so that’s the way I’m going. It’s probably down to my old damn body and eyeballs frankly. Golden years my ass…
I believe the experience of the variables of mirage, spin drift. even correlis effect and windage of long range shooting and how to deal with them finally caught up with him ! He didn't seem to have any working knowledge of how these must be accounted for to achieve any match level, repeatable consistency, in our discussions.
With the exception of mirage aren't the other factors dealt with by making sight adjustments and or corrections?
Yes, they all are sight corrections, but one must understand how wind speed and direction , humidity, barometric pressure and light effect the amount of sight change required. A for instance is a fish tail wind coming at you or away from you and what it looks like through a spotting scope. Some times no sight correction is needed at all but rather just a hold up until the condition returns to a norm that has been caught and established through the scope and wind flag movement.
I get and agree with ya but my current line of thinking is. So long as someone can spot their impacts getting onto something like a 3 or 4 foot gong at range is doable with sight corrections even if they don't know the physics. With the caveat that some variables like the switching winds or heat mirage can make it quite difficult if not impossible at times.
Lewis was shooting something like 1200 yards in mountainous terrain and was getting some hits on a 4x4 steel target if I remember correctly and that was some good shooting but mostly chance and would be impossible to consistently repeat from impact register alone without learning to read condition through a spotting scope and compensate for it. I've seen condition reversals in a matter of minutes on a rifle range that will move you from one side of the target to the other when missed without a sight correction or hold off.
I must have missed something in those short and highly edited vids he used to put up. I took it that he was showing it was possible to connect at those ranges not that it was easy. Btw, you misspelled Coriolis.
Yeah, I took a stab at the spelling hoping spell check would find it for me but it didn't , alas it was close enough to communicate the meaning and that was all that was needed.
