Back in the 80s at Daystate they used .22 bullet heads on the higher power pcps (30ft lbs +) because the pellets of the day couldn't handle the power.

They said the pellets disintegrate if I recall correctly. This could have been the hubris of an engineer talking to an enthusiastic young boy!

IIRC the RWS Barracuda was developed for the HW35 Barracuda - the one with the ether (or similar) fuel injected directly into the cylinder. This was because it blew the heads off normal pellets.

Nothing to do with shooting, but my late Grandmother god bless her once said!

Splitting in half? That is clearly because he was shooting at taught piano wire at 50 yards. No doubt standing as well.
Time for another Mr Doe challenge?

Sorry its not shooting related but its possibly the greatest bullxxxt quote I have ever heard.
I asked someone if they were familiar with a river about 70 miles away and they said yes they remember someone catching a sword fish there. I was then told that a local pet shop would order fish in bulk and discard various unwanted fish in to the river.
