Sorry if i misled u borden811 on how i worded what i said about the blend "almost " blowing thru....all i can tell u is that H.S #7 shot SOME pellets were sticking half way out whereas the blend was not showing at all. The only pellet that went "thru" and actually took chunks out of 5/8" board were the Fed H.W #7 shot.During my testing i used new pieces of board to achieve accurate results....and in MY testing 110fps made the difference.
