[QUOTE="tim_w, post: 1351297, member: 11132"] I agree with Bravo 4 I would not be using the Flat line bullets for hunting. They have no design characteristics for expansion ( hollow point, softer tip etc.) Maybe their design, which would not have been intentional, causes them to yaw early and thus create a larger wound channel. The ones I saw recovered from testing that hit steel were just bent no expansion what so ever. Looked very much like the solid non-expanding used for cape and elephant. I do agree that mono of the same weight that have the same basic design shape as jackets will have higher BC than the later. That is almost a given. Usually of the same dimensions they are light enough comparatively to the jackets lead version their increased vel gives them basically equal perf in flight. In some cases they are actually superior in those areas. Warner Flat line are such as case. Just my opinion for what its worth. [/QUOTE]
