I’ll be happy to dispose of them for you, alleviating any feelings of remorse.
I’ll even pay shipping, ‘cause I’m generous that way… :D

I was never a fan of Llama, and saw too many problems with them too often.
I was very fond of the Star line, though, and hated to see them become history.

The early Stars were what I considered...

There’s the voice of experience… I’d have given away the dog that followed me that way long before they reached adulthood, as a pet to a non-hunter.

I’ve already pretty much left/ignored Gunbroker because of the excessive useless garbage listings.
The site suffers from self-inflicted wounds, mainly running over-priced adds indefinitely for FREE....

Gunbroker’s biggest flaw is that it allows FREE adds, often becoming nothing more than a showplace for stupid prices and scammers.
Allowing adds to run for free, indefinitely, invites over-priced...

Although I have no use, or interest, in the “8.6 Blackout” I have seen it used.
1) NEVER try to shoot at it’s super-sonic potential through a suppressor without testing the bullet first with the...

I’ll take that as, “No… I can’t show you where anyone said anything I’m claiming was said.”.
Good enough.

Are you serious?

You have spent days, and dozens of posts, because a simple program that doesn’t have the ability to differentiate between meplat diameters doesn’t differentiate between meplat...

Where did that come from??.. I must have missed it.
Of course meplat diameter plays a significant role in the wound channel “crush” diameter in a non-expanding bullet… I haven’t seen anyone dispute...

Exactly.
Elastic tissues being “stretched” by the Temporary Cavity at typical handgun velocities often show no visible trauma on examination, according to the experts that have done serious work in...

Temporary means temporary… Permanent means just that, permanent.
The initial “stretch cavity” that collapses almost immediately is often referred to as the “Temporary Cavity” because it’s gone by...

“Carves out”, “crushes”…. Yessir.

You can stop playing the “Poor dumb me” card… We both know you think much higher of yourself.
And NO, the Temporary cavity and Permanent wound channel do NOT rely upon each other, they simply exist...

You’re NEVER going to find a combo that creates a 4 inch PERMANENT wound channel, “cavity” if you prefer, and a one inch TEMPORARY cavity… But you can disagree anytime you like.
It doesn’t matter...

I’d have to disagree…..
The “Permanent Wound Cavity” is caused by the bullet…. Lol

The “Temporary” or “Stretch” cavity has been proven to have very little, if any, serious contribution to the...

I’m not sure if SAAMI has any specs for the oddball +Ps…. IIRC, +P was mentioned as a 10% increase over standard levels, and +P+ had no “standards” at all.

I don’t normally buy any factory fodder...

A quick check at Underwood’s showed 38 Super and 45 Colt being available in +P offerings.

40 S&W +P, by Buffalo Bore… They even offer 32 and 380 +P…
Underwood is another that supplies unusual options.

Let’s say, hypothetically, that I have a 38 snubby load for SD that easily and reliably achieves the type penetration I want but is iffy on expansion as one option, and the second option is a similar...

Valid point, and one that often causes confusion in many of these ballistic wound trauma, and ammo component combo potentials to cause quantifiable tissue destruction/damage/results.
The mistake is...

In your case, nothing is believable.
Luckily sane people with some experience can make pretty good judgement calls when presented with reasonable evidence and logical reasoning.
There’s no “coin...

Dr. Martin Fackler is often referred to as “The Father” of modern wound ballistic research (for good reason) by other men, highly respected by their peers, that have followed in his footsteps.
