[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 1665721, member: 109862"] No hijack, no apologies, and actually on the subject of these match type bullets and their terminal performance, I see in your photographs of the loaded rounds that the particular scenar you’re loading seems to have a decently wide hollowpoint, not pointed or closed or hard to see the hole. That should be a good thing I would think. I’ve been reading a ton of stuff about this subject on old threads and other forums as well and the scenar seems to be loved or hated, some saying it just punches holes and others saying it’s the best of the bunch, the most polarizing one being the 155 30 cal. I find myself thinking that even if you could guarantee fragmentation, if hunting anything bigger than a deer I’d want more projectile mass/sectional density in a 30 caliber using bullets that utilize this method of killing.
