I'm looking for information on the penitration and "killing power" of brenneke slugs in general. I'm thinking of going with a browning gold fully rifled with a full loading of brenneke golds for grizzly defense, and I want to know if i will get the penitration i want. I'm sure that the brenneke golds will perform only a little better than a standard brenneke, because it only weighs 3/8 of an ounce more, so i'm curious what kind of results you guys have gotten any kind of game. I settled on the golds after figuring out the taylor knockdown value(bullet weight*velocity*diameter /7000) of the load was far higher than my original lever action 45 colt with heavy loads.
45 colt
335 grain .452 dia bullet @ 1600 fps= taylor knockdown of 34.6
brenneke gold
605 grain .729 dia bullet @ 1475 fps= taylor knockdown of
92.9
This doesn't take into concideration penitration however, so that is my main concern in this slugs effectiveness. so i need some field reports. thanks in advance.
