Sorry about the cross section of the wound channel. This load really crushed the block and caused a substantial amount of disruption, especially in the first 10″ or so. When I cut into the block for the cross section photo it practically fell apart. The photo really doesn’t do justice to the damage that was done.
YouTube has demonetized more than 1/3 of my videos and more get hit every day. They are working hard to suppress channels like mine and other pro-gun, conservative, or libertarian content. Please help support my channel by purchasing shirts, phone cases, stickers, etc. https://teespring.com/stores/the-chopping-block
