[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 959399, member: 6452"] I'm personally very interested in a .30 130 grain lead free bullet for the .308. In my experience the limiting factor for expansion with mono's is velocity. On game performance seems to be decided much more by impact velocity than any other factor. For me that limit is 2000 fps. Cup and cores can be developed to expand reliably and far lower velocities than I have been able to get with mono's. For what ever reason in my .308 I simply can not reach anywhere near the published velocities even with the lightest 150 grain ETip. In ballistic program comparisons it appears the lighter mono's should be able to be pushed to velocities that might overcome their BC short fallings when compared to heavier bullets. At least in the smaller cases. My 7mm Rem Mag seems to have no problem pushing 150 grain ETips to velocities comparable to cup and core bullets. [/QUOTE]
