Phill-W68 547 Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 As we all know when down to shooting, safety and a safe backstop is always first rule then it's accuracy 2nd..but does anyone on here who shoots sub 12ft lbs ever do any penetration tests with different pellet types and if so what do you use for the target? Ive often wondered what would be the best thing to use... Quote Link to post

Deker 3,450 Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) Old phone books used to be the thing, back in the day when they were 2" thick. It was easy to flick through page numbers to check/compare penetration. Edited June 18, 2018 by Deker 1 Quote Link to post
