These bullets are made to KILL! not look pretty with a plastic tip. The plastic tip does no great thing for a ML either, and with the boatail you atleast have a choice! either you want a boattail or flat base everyone is different! most ML bullets as you know dont fully open at longer ranges this half jacket design alows the bullet to expand and still hold together! the larger bullets are going to have a thicker jacket for even better expantion control. As you can see form the bullet preformance above!!!
this is a hunting bullet hand made to your spec's that shoots!
Ian give me you address and I will send you some to test! then see what you think. But you have to shoot more than paper with them!!!!!
