Description

On this episode, Seth is joined by Hornady Engineers, Ryan and Miles. The topic of discussion is one of our personal favorites - bullets. Specifically, how the weight of a bullet is determined. This episode is an excellent guide to help you understand what bullet weight is, how it affects internal and external ballistics, terminal performance, and how it can be used to your advantage. We hope you enjoy this episode!
