Impressive

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

Very nice

As al-xg was saying, a heavier slower projectile might be the ticket. It will be less likely to shatter while still having the sectional density to penetrate.

[Petitlu]

I have a question, research is difficult because of the language ...

Spudfiles on, there are many who shoot hybrid Mix40 or more? (except larda)

I'd love to see them

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

Most people seem to have maxed out at 20-30x. Personally I've gone up to 28x maximum, because that's the most you can get using butane/propane at atmospheric pressure.

[DYI]

I'm not aware of anyone currently using over 30X, save for Petitlu (Larda's been preoccupied with a pulse jet powered snowmobile for a while). I'll likely exceed 40X with my testing this summer, but that's all small scale indoor stuff. Mobile Chernobyl is interested in doing a high pressure hybrid, but he's been on about that for years now...

[Petitlu]

" I'll likely exceed 40X " with hybrid or other ?

there were no hybrid Mix40, small caliber made ​​of Spud?

EDIT :

That makes you second to Larda

And that's a thoroughly abused beam you got there had you tried the 8mm ball bearing in the sabot?

[Petitlu]

My next test will be shooting with ball 8mm steel and tungsten rod.
I will try récupurer tungsten:
after passing through the metal rod will go in a plexiglass aquarium!
All filmed at 60fps with a EOS7D

"That makes you second to Larda"
this makes us second to Larda

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

after passing through the metal rod will go in a plexiglass aquarium!

Full of water I hope

this makes us second to Larda

Glad to be a part of it

[Petitlu]

yes, full of water! and I even want to put a red fish!

Without you I have had difficulty make a hybrid ...

[Petitlu]

I thought about the shots of concrete nail.
the first was different from the second

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

Is the fin you used for the first shot number 3 from left in this picture?



That might have been too flimsy, I went a bit overboard with the milling... I would believe that it broke up in the barrel.

[Petitlu]

No, first shot:
second from the left
second shot:
first from the left

EDIT :
The mix was different too, but I think the angle of fire played a lot in the result

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

Right. Still a bit of a mystery though, from a lower mix I would expect a shallower hole but still not the side-on mark imprinted on the beam from that shot.
