Have you tried the HST yet?

Have you tried the HST yet?

No I haven't tried HST. I have quite a bit of the Hydrashock and don't see any reason to change.

Dont blame ya there. I have lots of the HST's, and I love them. They retain their weight, and have lots of expansion. I havent noticed any issues yet with jacket seperation.

Very nice... I wonder how they look after only 1 jug of water?

 

I carry the same rounds in my .45s and have wondering about expansion in a typical "person" thickness.

Nice mushroom!

It's funny how the one test I did that was just an afterthought is the one that people are interested in.

 

I knew the Hydrashock would perform well.

Makes for such a pretty picture!
