[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2849891, member: 94556"] Guides have very variable levels of knowledge of ballistics. We should not be to hard on them, primarily because the biggest influence on their ballistic perceptions is their experience with client with very varied skill levels. Ultimately they are the one who has to mop up the results of a bad shot. My guide for the Alaskan Black Bear hunt was excellent, but discouraged clients from using copper bullets because he saw variable performance from them, specifically inconsistency in expansion. After he saw the results of how our copper bullet worked on 2 bears, both shot with just a 308Win each DRT kills, he changed his mind at least about our bullets. [/QUOTE]
