[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 1807541, member: 108965"] Better penetration, it holds together better and is available in heavier weight than the ballistic tip. The heaviest BT is 150gr and the SST is 162gr. In my experience the SST goes through bone and also gives you and exit wound. The Ballistic tips sometimes dont exit, not that its bad but I rather have an exit just in case. I have not been able to recover an SST yet and the wound it creates inside is massive. We use the 139gr on the 7mm-08's and the 162gr in the 7 Rem Mag and 7 SAUM. [/QUOTE]
