[QUOTE="Northkill, post: 2553851, member: 110890"] So many variables. My experience would indicate that hitting a non-consistent medium - such as an animal - can result in a petal breaking off one side and not the other, for example. Or the petals can open to different degrees. When this happens, it'll steer the bullet off course pretty quickly. Over-spinning them will increase the odds of keeping it going in a straighter penetration path. It's what happens after/during penetration that somewhat changes the stability factor requirement of a hunting use bullet vs a target use bullet. [/QUOTE]
