[QUOTE="can1010, post: 1686173, member: 43193"] I have spent some time with the 153 a-tip working on expansion and seeing how they will hold together. running them between 2975-3050 in my 6.5 prc and expansion is not reliable only 2 out of 20 ever expanded even shooting through milk jugs filled with water. they penciled through the first and started to tumble in second and recovered from dirt mound the were bent and flat depending how they hit the mound but not expanding. the 2 that exploded the milk jugs looked like 143 eldx would. even know they are very accurate I wont be using them for hunting testing was done at 100 yds. as distance increases and velocity slows it will get worse [/QUOTE]
