Inspired by an article in Handloader:





Why? Keeps me out of trouble

That, and curiosity

I realize:

Specific hardness will require a specific cut, moving a specific speed, to expand reliably. Feeding issues and nose collapse might plague initial trials. Concentricity influences accuracy.

Concentricity seems the easiest, and last, issue to solve - bench top lathe

I'll use QuickLOAD to calc load based on the bullet's new weight.

Yer the man. Me, I'll just generally use a "long" unstable semi wadcutter going balls.

Those look good enough to eat!

You going to get some pics after you've put them into some milk jug of water, or something else I hope?

Thanks Mike - Yes, full documentation (I'll just edit the 1st post / add to it).

I suspect the process, successful or otherwise, will take months

That's pretty cool.

I'd say you have too much time on your hands.

Tried that with some cast 320gr .459 bullets. Fired them from a .458S rifle, into 10, one gallon water filled milk jugs @ 1,450 fps. The first five jugs disintegrated and I picked a 200gr. slug out of the eighth one.

Not something to go meat hunting with.
