Much appreciated!
Anyone else want to chime in....
Sorry to dig up an old post… RE jug testing. No jugs tested, but Chuck Haggard and I HAVE shot 125’s and 158’s through my Rossi and 4 ply denim into Clear Gel. The 125’s upset early and frag but do go 16” while the 158’s traverse the block and are arrested in the trailing denim. I carry 158 hardcast SWC’s in my levers and most of my >40 ounce revos. And I plan for Rule 4 and pick my angle as best as I can to minimize over penetration. If that was a concern, I would go 125 grain SJHP. We also shot an AK with 123 grain Wolf ball and the results were similar, and also arrested in the trailing denim.

Thanks, I still don't have a levergat but it seems diverse....
And 125s in city or 158s would do just about anything... HST or Hydrashok or various whatever SJHP or XTPs loaded by whomever at carbine velocities all should do well whatever ammo laying around which would be nice.
Clear Gel isn't very dense, but can you elaborate on the Wolf, did it yaw and damage well or was it a minimal wound.....
Thanks
