Does anyone know what the minimum impact velocity is for expansion on the Thors? Best I can figure after researching the web is 1400ish FPS

I run 125 grains of 777 that smashed steel at 300 found it walking up to the target at about 250 yards I think they carry enough energy for any range you should be shooting with open sights

Barnes ez tmz is about 1,050 fps if you believe them.

You could always shoot a 1 gallon jug and see what happens...

Would love to hear more feedback on this. Trying Thors this year and have experienced the speed needed for monos with a centerfire. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a steel plate open a mono at 650fps... it’s steel. I’m concerned about slipping between the ribs and soft tissue not doing the job without enough velocity.

The first year we used them, I had my brother in law set up using 105gr pyrodex rs and the buck he nailed was 175 yards away. Complete expansion with the 250gr colorado thor.
