Shooting I do love a wadcutter bullet...

Both holes made by the same gun. 45ACP FMJ round nose, and lead semi-wadcutter.

i like them as well, but they are the only ones that I've had ricochet back and hit the back wall of the range behind me. we were trying out some of them in my 38 revolver, heard a "thunk" behind me on one of the shots, and found a flattened wadcutter sitting on the back table, still warm. it happened again about 3 weeks later, same lane (lucky i guess)

Yikes! I've caught a fragment off the backstop a couple of times, but I was only 10m away.
