the review is appreciated, but just an observation:

please keep the language a little more tame. I'm grateful that my son was not there when I was watching the review. Language here is kept pretty clean and I appreciate that. Not keeping the same standard when putting up a video review kinda defeats the purpose.

Not a flame, just a simple request. I'm pretty sure there's a lot of young shooters here as well, so the efforts to keep things clean are a big plus.

Just my thoughts.

All good and thanks for not being defensive.  8) I understand the shop mouth...I've got it too.  :-X

And FWIW, it looks like your review pretty much confirmed my concerns about hollowpoints. And it's a shame that your review also had the PileDrivers not being accurate.

I want them so much to be accurate; the concept sounds so good and I'm sure they'd make a great hunting round. If they can hit the target.  :(

What was the clay medium you used? Is that duct seal?

Ya I wish I had something like an FX impact to test the piledrivers with. In my gun though they are not awful but nothing near great.. :/

Modeling clay, and aluminum can cut into 5 strips!

Heck...I'd just like an FX Impact! Testing not required.  ;D
