[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 956175, member: 2736"] +1 A while ago, I was trying to figure out why the 120 BT performed so much better than the 140 BT even when shot at the same velocity. and was told by Nosler that between the pelt hunters and the silhouette shooters wanting a heaver jacket (They were the bulk of the sales for the 120s)they changed the wall thickness of the jacket. Not wanting to leave it at that , I decided to mount a 120 and a 140 ballistic tip side by side in epoxy and machine the bullets half way through the bullet and measure the wall thickness my self. The 120 had a .010 thousandths thicker jacket than the 140. I use the 120 grain ballistic tip exclusively in the 7/08 and have never been disappointed. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
