those funny PMC rounds that fire the cylinder like 'cookie cutter' projectile. It had a base on it and after firing it fell off down range a bit. I think the cookie cutter cylinder projectile only weighed about 66 grains or similar and had a very high velocity and when it hit you it 'cut' a wound channel that was meant to be pretty impressive. Did they work like they were meant to? Have any of you guys used them? They sound like a good idea but I have never seen them in the shops or known anyone who has used them. Cheers, Russ. |

NOFX; Like you, I remember seeing them in mags or whatever, but don't have any personal experience with them & don't know anybody who did. But, it's an interesting question, well worth trying to get an answer to. I think I'll go over to one of the far larger "Tacti-cool" boards I frequent & see if we can learn something. 900F ------------- Birth certificate!? He don't need no steenkink birth certificate!! |

NOFX, that stuff is called "Ultramag". Sometime back in the '80's I bought a couple boxes of 38 Spcl and 44 Spcl that were being sold at a real low price. (Probably 'cause nobody wanted them) I still have a box of the 44 as shown below. This one uses a 110gr bullet. Never tried them on anything except paper and some pieces of wood.

Gunrunner, thanks mate I remember that were called 'ULTRAMAG' now. So PMC don't make it anymore? If they don't it obviously didn't work as it was claimed. Russ. |

NOFX; Go to the thread in rifles entitled "What Would You Do?". The answer I wanted to post here wound up over there. Why? I don't know, it just did. 900F ------------- Birth certificate!? He don't need no steenkink birth certificate!! |

NOFX, I can't remember where I saw it but somebody is making a Muzzle loader bullet like this for loading in a plastic sabot. RD ------------- When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty. Thomas Jefferson |
