[QUOTE="Lou270, post: 2765708, member: 5352"] The increased yaw at short range is what causes the nose to buckle faster. As the bullet travels further down range there is less yaw (ie resistance / surface area) once the bullet enters the animal and bullet will travel further before tip buckling. This is what I am saying by yaw dependent and classic otm bullet behavior. The barbour creek video clearly shows this. Several others as well. The reason it apparently works pretty reliably for bergers is they intentionally keep their jackets pretty thin. I am not aware if other manufacturers do this with their otms but probably not Lou [/QUOTE]
