Fudd Friday: The Brush-Busting Question

Summary

This article debunks the myth of 'brush-busting' rifle rounds, recounting a hunter's experience with bullet deflection while moose hunting in Quebec/New Brunswick. It references Francis E. Sell's 1980 book, 'Art of Successful Deer Hunting,' which scientifically tested various cartridges for deflection. Sell's research indicated that bullets with velocities between 2,200-2,500 fps and weights of 150 grains or heavier showed the least deflection.
