M855 vs. Nosler 50Gr Balistic Tip

Since almost everyone likes these kind of pictures I thought I'd post the results of my not so scientific experiment.

Pumpkins were shot at 100 yards with a 20" barrel.

Happy Holloween!

Insert candle and you're ready for Halloween!

Careful with the comparisons--there's another variable at play:

One pumpkin is a Jack-O'Lantern, the other is a Sweet Pie variety...which have exceedingly different ballistic resistance. Don't even attempt your test against a Kamo Kamo or a Chirimen.
