Odd entry wound
Posted: Sun Jul 05, 2009 4:48 pm
Was out to my folks place for a couple weeks recently, had 900 rounds of .204 and 2500 rounds of .22LR but between rain, brothers graduation, and getting my transmission rebuilt I only shot 200 rounds of centerfire and maybe the same with the .22
On the last day I got about 50 rounds off before the rain came and had the .22 out for some close range shots.
Because this one was so close (20 yards) I run over to see the result and was surprised to see the entry wound as it appears here...
Exit was pretty normal.
I am assuming that the hydraulic pressure caused the entry would to protrude like it does I just found it to be quite different from the normal entry wound. The Federal Champion Value pack rounds I was using obviously don't expand very well but they are accurate in my gun and I purchased a case of 5,500 last year so I use them.
