    Excellent, I was aware of Jim's passing and I was lucky enough to watch his tribute piiece when it arire. It is also great to know why the show changed to a 30 min from 1 hour.

    “That sounds like a great way to grow up!”
    I know I haven’t grown up, but I’m 40 and riding 3 wheelers into the desert to shoot cans with a 22 still sounds like a dang good time. 😂

    I've been reloading since the 70s shot competition for years

    Yeah, poor Seth will never win any beauty contest but, he does the Hornady podcasts very well.😁

    Yes, you and your great podcast/ You Tube videos are greatly appreciated
    When I order something from Hornady mothership, I ask if they could charge me $20 for a beer fund for you all. They say they don’t know how to do that😕

    🤷‍♂️ I Am Wondering Why You Don't Use MORE and SMALLER PRESSURE RELIEF GROOVES - THAT ARE CUT GOING FORWARD, CUT AT AN ANGLE - in Your COPPER BULLETS? It Seems To Me That THIS CHANGE Would Make The BULLETS MORE AERODYNAMIC? 👨‍🏫

      I had this thought a long time ago myself. But when I realized the projectile is as (well stated) literally being engraved by the rifling; preexisting additional longitudinal grooves will be of extreme detriment to the ballistic performance. On a mass production scale; no one could account for the infinite variability of rifling from one barrel to the next. You would likely end up with a mess of squiggly lines in the jacket, gyroscopic stabilization would be nonexistent, as the bullet moved through the velocity curve the sonic booms (pressure waves) would most certainly cause the projectile to tumble uncontrollably.
      You might benefit from the concept, if you made custom bullets with your barrels specific rifling imprinted on the jacket, but you would have to engage each round, perfectly with said rifling and I still don't have confidence that subtle differences between powder charge, would result in a consistent position throughout the length of the barrel.
      Just my thoughts, but it became very obvious when I drew it on cad.

      It seems to work for Hammer bullets. They trademarked the radiused ends of their grooves. They actually speed up and use non typical powders because of it.
      I haven't used them but it's very interesting.

      👍 😁 You Gave Me More to Think About, So Thank You For Your Comment! I Still Never Heard Back From Horneday in My Last Idea - To Use Ball Powder "Geo-Packing" (Using Multiple Size Powder Balls and Fill The Pore Space Between the Larger Balls With Smaller Ones). This Would Get More Powder Into The Case and Ensure a More Complete Burn Rate and Faster Velocities - Provided That The Chemistry of Each Sized Ball Was Balanced Right? Additionally, If "Materiali Science" Was Better Utilized With Better Barrel Coatings - Barrels Would Last Longer , People Would Shoot More, and Horneday Would Make More Money! New Coatings - Like Graphene, Which is 200 Times Harder Than Steel - Will Allow The Barrel to Last Longer! 👨‍🔬 I Have Lots of Other "Ideas" Too! 😂

      🤷‍♂️ I Haven't Used Hammer Bullets Either - Mostly Because I Don't Like Using Fragmenting Bullets on Anything But Antelope (To Take Out Their Large Lungs)! However, They Reportedly Shoot Very Accurately in Some Rifles! 😯

      @@onebadjack1313 Radial, yes. And the CX bullets have them. Jayden discusses it in the DVRT podcast. Maybe I misunderstood the OPs question? What I read seems like a question about grooving that runs the longitudinal or perhaps as a longitudinal spiral. Basically the same as pre-made rifling.
