Meh, I don?t defend a name for name?s sake. Not defending Hornady at all.
I was implying the impact velocity when I mentioned the 3 foot distance. Or maybe, I should have implied it better. Yes.......impact velocity is what is important. That?s what I?ve been on about all these years.
So, what do you estimate the impact velocity of that RCM at 3 feet?
Maybe not but some will defend their pet bullet/brand to the death, so it seems.
Knowing how the box is so often very optimistic, I wouldn't bother trying to guess. Really doesn't matter anyway, referring to my point about shooting an elk at 50yds. The recovered weight was 134gr. It penetrated 11", whereas a .44Mag 330gr LFN penetrated 26". Whether one regards it as a failure or not, I wouldn't use that bullet on anything bigger than deer and I wouldn't hunt deer with a .338 so.....
