Woodleigh failures?
      29/07/04 05:55 AM

I've been talking to some people lately about 350 grain Rhino bullets compaired to Woodleighs 350 grain bullets for use in .375H&H. Here in Norway last year there were quite a lot of the Woodleigh RN bullets that didn't hold together, and this was even mentioned in a few magazine articles.
As I've been told by Ray in some PMs that we've been sending eachother, he's had no failures in the numerous buff and eland he's used this bullet on.

My question is; have any of you heard or experianced failures with the .375/350 grain RN Woodleighs? Failure as in the lead seperating from the copper and each going their seperate ways...

Any and all bullets can "fail" given the "right treatment", but it appears that more than one would expect had problems here in Norway. Could it have been a bad batch that was sent up here?
