I shot this empty can of murray's pomade a while back with my talon. I think it was with a pointed pellet. Those cans are tin, but so strong you could stand on it and it wouldn't deform. Not even close to full power the talon passed through both sides like butter.

The shot to the right of that is my 2240 at low power. I hit it with the same pointed pellet, which I've set next to a new pellet for illustrative purposes, and it just turned the pellet into a deformed dome and didn't even penetrate one side.

I find it interesting to perform these sorts of tests from time to time....and fun!

Not even 1 time a week? Just 75% of one time?

back on topic. a .22 superdome @ 700fps will NOT go all the way through a tennis ball. Shocked they do flatten quite a bit though. Mr. Green
