Yes, big words... and he got it wrong to boot. I have only ever heard the word "obdurate" used in one context... having to do with a "dickie bird" singing a deathbed ballard in "The Mikado". Curiously, just today an airgun buddy sent me a link on casting bullets which I eagerly began reading and came across a new word "obturate" and I remembered this thread.... and thought something 'aint right, t, d, which one . A quick Google set it straight (who new, eh?) So, sorry Sean... the correct word for a pellet expanding to fit the bore is indeed "obturate", and I hope you don't get mad for me "educating" us on that point.
