[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 694723, member: 4191"] The value of the tipped bullets helping to ensure lower impact velocity bullet expansion becomes visibly apparent with these photos. Seems like I've read 1800 fps being the minimum recommended velocity to achieve consistent expansion from the Berger hunting bullets in the past. Your testing of their 215 Hybrid is consistent with what I've read. The Hybrid came apart at 1900 fps, but no expansion at 1800 fps. Good to know, and thanks for posting the results of your tests with photos. [/QUOTE]
