Dunno about the jackets. I havn't researched that. Sounded good. You may be
right about the steel thickness. Calls for some testing.

Some country folks would use a .22 rimfire rifle, from about 50 feet,
to make the initial hole. 40 grain jacketed solid.


Who makes a jacketed .22 rimfire bullet?

I think a .22 would probably not make it through steel that thick; I think
you'd need a centerfire bullet to do it.
