[QUOTE="Hard rock, post: 2697475, member: 116620"] Sectional density is more of a factor , with cup and core bullets in every caliber , than with a mono . A Hammer or Barnes will penetrate more because of retained weight , the hammer will out penetrate a Barnes because of the shedding of the petals allowing the shank to keep penetrating . I personally don’t worry about sectional density in any cal or bullet weight when shooting a hammer bullet , because if you have enough velocity the bullet will keep penetrating . You can’t spin or push them too fast on impact velocity in my experience [/QUOTE]
