Fort Scott TUI Ammo: 4 Hog First Blush
#13
tdbru, it is a small sample. I have recovered one more hog so far. One was a heart shot and the bullet was in full tumble upon exiting with a nice keyhole exit hole at 4-5". I think the only problem I am having with this ammo is that it isn't living up to its advertising of hydrostatic shock resulting in clean, ethical kills. Otherwise, I think it is performing as advertised in the sense that it does tumble (like non-fragmenting FMJ). After this heart shot hog, I get the impression that the tumble rate is going to be highly variable. You don't know if you are going to get a slow yaw into a full broadside at 6-9" as it would appear in their videos or if it will happen faster or slower.

Otherwise, it does appear to be tumbling. It does not seem to tumble upon impact, but well after impact, however. So this begs the question as to whether or not hunters want bullets that tumble and not expand. I would be hard pressed to say that for myself.
Kill a hog. Save the planet.
