I'll be danged. Birdcarver did it go through the wet sand too?

This is good info to know. I've never thought powder coating affecting the bullet's ability to deform. I'm sure you've already evaluated what's behind the target, etc., before pulling the trigger but, I've run into some "other types" like the guy on Dolly Ridge Rd in Birmingham who has a hanging arrow target and there's a damn house 30 - 40yds behind it, no fence, no nothing.
