Her bullets may have been acting more like solids when they hit at 2,000 ft/sec.

The minimum impact velocity for reliable expansion is an elusive animal.

I double-checked Barnes' website and found this page: http://www.barnesbullets.com/resources/n...-bullet-n/ and it indicates a minimum of 2,000 ft/sect for 'most TTSX' and 1600 ft/sec for ALL LRX.

We probably should use the higher figure of 1600 ft/sec for the LRX until independent test data surfaces.
