Your both partially right. The military has done extensive studies, obviously, on FMJ bullets. They have put a minimum "lethal" velocity on each FMJ they use, which is the minimum velocity a bullet will still break apart at the cannular when it yaws or tumbles in ordinance gel. FMJ bullets don't just poke holes, they tumble, which in it's self, causes a lot of damage, but if they are going fast enough, they also break in half at the cannular causing massive damage and they are still legal by international rules of war.

Ref bonded bullets, my experience with .30 cal Accubonds vs Ballistic Tips is that with 165s & 180s Accubonds aren’t appreciably tougher at .308 Win & .30-06 speeds. Maybe the ABs pull away with the magnum .30 cal cartridges. On the flip side, IN MY RIFLES, factory Ballistic Tip loads typically shoot better than ABs. So for me as a non-magnum .30 cal shooter, my answer to the bonded bullet question is, “What’s the point?”

They should do one on the pistol bullet types as well sometime.

The Terminal Ascent is a hybrid design. It is intended to be more accurate than a traditional bonded bullet by reducing the size of the bonded core and moving the lead towards the centerline (spin axis) of the bullet. This is in contrast to many traditional bonded designs like the Accu Bond series which essentially solder the lead core to a relatively this jacket. Typically, a flux is used to strip off oxides to get a good bond, but these particles of oxide stay in the core. The particles of oxides are a different density than lead and can deposit randomly in the core as it is melted for the bonding process. Those particles throw off the balance of the bullet slightly, especially if they stay near the outside (the jacket-core interface). The Terminal Ascent bullets reduce the effect of the oxide particles on balance by making the total bonding surface smaller and moving it towards the centerline, where it has less effect on the spinning bullet.

Ten minutes turns to ninety. gotta love it. I will say that the only way I could see bonded bullets going away completely, would be if the monolithic copper bullets get cheaper. As olit stands now, a bonded bullet offers more than half of the performance, at almost half the cost of an all copper bullet (especially if we are talking about full cartridges and not just the bullets). I've been trying to stack as much federal fusion 223 as I can, but it's so damn difficult to find in stores around here, and most of the online retailers are marking it up a great deal.

I am a big fan of bonded bullets, the federal fusion (or Speer Gold dot) especially. I believe these stand out from other bonded bullets because they are essentially an extremely thick electroplated jacked with an exposed tip, until the polymer tip Speer Impact. Federal and Speer can manufacture them this way because of their location in the PNW using cheaper power from the Columbia river dams. Other companies may use a process more similar to soldering to bond the jacket and core. I have personally sectioned bullets out of curiosity, and was shocked at the small size of the hornady interlock ring. The representation of the picture on the box is much more pronounced than in reality, although I have used interlocks to take deer with a 30-06. The jackets can separate from the core if you hit bone, something the fusions would not do. The fact that the interlock ring is used in the Interlock, SST, and ELD X lines means most of the innovation has been on the outside rather than the inside of their bullets. Great "10 min" talk thanks

This is a fascinating discussion. Talking of a “tough” name for bullet was our Australian bullet the Woodleigh WELDCORE. Either a round nose or semi spitzer bonded bullet.

For the vast majority of hunters you don’t need the toughness of a bonded bullet.

A decent rule of thumb is that a monolithic copper-allow bullet will be as physically large as a traditional cup-and-lead-core bullet that is 25% heavier. A 120grain monolithic is about the same size as a 150grain cup and core, for example. The BC of the bullet, though is related to the density as well as shape. so the lighter monolithic bullet will have a lower BC than the same shaped cup and core. This is partially offset by the lighter bullet being launched faster, but if you are looking at 500 yard shots, the monolithic bullet is typically at a disadvantage vs a tipped bonded or cup-and-core.

I think bonded is a cost issue, being the same or more as monolithic/ lead-free bullets, and then there is the question of why not go with the lead-free at that point. Going with a heavier lead bullet to limit the downfalls of bullets falling apart at short range also leads to the question of whether a bonded bullet is needed. That being said, I would prefer bonded in a lead bullet for 90% of my hunting over standard lead, but just as easily would grab the lead free option.

My favorite episode so far! One thought about flat-based bullets: in some situations you might have more surface contact with the case neck (think light for caliber) -or- you might have less bullet intrusion into the powder column (think longer bullet that has to sit back into the case more). Does that have any bearing? (Forgive me for the horrible pun 🤓) P.S. Hornady is really irritating. That 160 grain 7mm CX bullet? No data for either 7mm-08 or 7x57 Mauser. Seems like it would be ideal for the 7x57…

The problem bonded bullets have is sales volume, cup and core plinking and match style bullets just simply sell more. You may go through a few hundred match rounds in a weekend, or thousands of plinking or varmint styles. But that one box of top quality bonded ammunition will last you the entire season, or for those like my grandfather the decade of big game hunting. I don’t think bonded are going to go anywhere, what Ryan is witnessing is the expansion of the competition and plinking sectors that just simply consume far more ammunition and not a reduction of the bonded usage. Of course this is anecdotal, but I know my own shooting continues to increase with a variety of projectiles but the big game rounds I use in a year has been fairly consistent over the last 30 years.

I have access to black powder and prefer it to all of the substitutes, sans bh209. For me, bh209 is far more difficult to find. Pyrodex, triple 7, and all the pellets are useless as tits on a bull. I think a good analogy would be the corner vent windows from cars. I didn't like seeing them disappear from new car models, but now air conditioning is so much better and quieter that I rarely even think of them. It will be the same for the bonded bullets, which I also love and load for my hunting. They will be replaced in the market by better alternatives.

The amount of info you all left out of this talk could fill two more podcasts of this length. Lathe turned solids. The brief foray into the TMJ expanding bullets. Monolithic non-expanding solids. More on the partitioned bullets like the nosler or the swift. Thicker plated bullets. Polymer coated bullets. Specialty lead alloy bullets. Sintered bullets. Segmented bullets. Bonded bullets won’t go away. They will become more niche. Just like the black powder analogy there will be a market for it but people will have to search it out. Dangerous game hunters will want it and be willing to pay the price. Just ask Hornady. They went to extreme lengths just to get steel jackets to sell bullets and ammo to dangerous game hunters. Heck lathe turned bullets are a thing too… I dare you to find them in any regular gun shop. I think bonded are a hard sell in our disposable society. It’s why we are seeing such an influx of cheap hunting rifles I think; lots of people want to buy whatever will work instead of spending the money for something tuned and optimized for the task. Why buy a custom built rifle and shoot premium bonded bullets when a ruger American and some Winchester Super X will kill the deer too? Some people will still want Swift A-Frames even if they are made by a single guy in his garage. I also think that the monolithic expanding bullets are a niche market. They also need cartridges and barrels designed for them. Wanna shoot 180 gr. Barnes bullets in a 30-06? The standard twist rate in a 30-06 is probably too slow for them. You’ll also lose some velocity to the loss in case capacity. Also, I’m pretty sure the old benchrest guy’s theory about flat based bullets was disproven years ago. If there was an advantage no short range benchrest shooter would use a boat tail design but that is not what has happened. Great episode.

It is a "Balance" and Every Copper Bullet (of Various Manufacturers) is Made to a Different Hardness and Needs to Be Evaluated Accordingly! 👨🏫

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="285">4:45</a> actually ... it makes sense for two reasons at least. first, if you only wound an enemy combatant, you take him out of the fight, and it requires more resources to take care of him, both on the battle field and in the rear. second, it helps prevent the escalation of more more and more horrific was to kill the enemy, ie. chemical, biological, nuclear etc. the overall goal is to win the war, (stop the war) not kill the most enemy.

I'll call BS around the 25 minute mark. OTMs can be very accurate and due to their oftenly high SD can have a good BC. With that said... Tipped rounds can produce fist sized groups at 1,000 and as a matter of the physics involved can have a higher BC than could be accomplished with an OTM. The sharper the tip and the more gradual the ogive the better (assuming it's stable in flight).
