I disassymbled a few of the Hornady 175gr FL cartridges and reloaded them to 1300 fps and shot them into wetpack.
The expanded diameters are not quite what I was hoping for but I think they lived up to the specifications that Hornady has for the Flexlock bullets
Left bullet: 152.1gr - Diameters = .498" x .487" , penetration = 9.5"
Rt bullet: 161.2gr - Diameter = .528" x .531" , penetration = 9.5"

Nice, I would expect a little more penetration in gel...but great results nonetheless! 8)
Thanks Sean!
