[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 971851, member: 54178"] MATCH bullets are [I]not [/I]hunting bullets. They will not expand properly, if at all. That is why they are OK to use for military sniping, because they comply with the Geneva Convention articles that require militaries use only non-expanding bullets (FMJ, for ex.) So you're thinking, "Hey, those match bullets have hollow points so they'll expand." [I]Au contraire[/I] my friend, they will not expand because the hollow point does not go back to the lead core. It is there only for aerodynamic purposes. (Another story for another thread.) Berger makes all their bullets, hunting or match, to match standards of uniformity. I like 'em. [/QUOTE]
