A Hard Discussion - Determining BHN for the Powder Coated Cast Lead Hollow Point Bullet Test

  • 6 years ago
This is the seventh video in the Powder Coated Cast Lead Hollow Point Bullet Testing series, which is a long experiment testing powder coated cast lead hollow point bullets made from various alloys and fired at various velocities.

In this video I have a little fun using various methods to measure the hardness of the lead alloys used to cast the bullets that will be used for this test.
