ball ammo?
« on: April 05, 2013, 08:44:35 PM »
     what is ball ammo?  is it the cheapest of the bullets?   while were are asking, what is hydra-shock?  and why is it so darn expensive  it seems to me the bullets are the same weight and the brass is the same and the powder is the same, the shells should all be the same price.  mike w

Ball ammo is Full metal jacket... what the military has to use. the cheapest stuff you can buy.  :twocents: Hydro shock or any other hollow point does much more damage and is "better" that ball... It makes a bigger wound and transfers more enegey... Practice with ball, Pack Hollow point.  :twocents:
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
