[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2938184, member: 109862"] Heres another old picture of mine just to show how much bullet length and bullet weight can be disproportionate depending on design. [ATTACH type="full"]507374[/ATTACH] 120 Barnes tactx, 220 CIL Klingkor round nose, 250 grain hawk round nose, 180 trophy bonded tip, 208 eld m, 210 accubond long range. Note that the 120 tactx is the same length as the 220 round nose! And the 250 round nose is actually SHORTER than the 180 trophy bonded. Blunt round nose bullets aren’t nearly as rear heavy either…makes them suck for long range target shooting and absolutely SMASH as far as terminal performance at close range - straight line penetration! There is a reason you will never see VLD profiles on dangerous game “insurance” bullets [/QUOTE]
