[QUOTE="xdeano, post: 794320, member: 18103"] My reasoning behind giving the green light on using a match bullet over a fmj is simply the fact that if you want to save fur you have to kill the animal in a quickly and humainely. A fmj will pencil through an animal and dump a very small amount of energy into the animal. What you want is a bullet that dumps its energy and doesnt exit. Fmjs wound tracts also have a tendency to seal up very quickly. This is basically why the military doesnt use match grade or lead nose ammo. If a person is injured with a fjm it will take two people to carry them out. Where as if they were shot with a round with a more substantual wound trama it will kill more effectively and you wont need the two others to carry the guy out. Plain and simple, choose a bullet suited for the job. Xdeano [/QUOTE]
