Impact Velocities

Woodleigh now have recommended impact velocities for all our soft nose bullets. These are listed on our website and printed on the new bullet boxes. We recommend a range of impact velocities for each bullet which will give reliable expansion and optimum retained weight.

These recommended impact velocities were arrived at after exhaustive field testing on various game. If loading to higher than the recommended velocity you may still get excellent results but it is our experience that driving the bullet within our ranges will give a more predictable result.
