[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2664280, member: 94556"] our bullets are made to petal like Barnes but much more reliably. At high impact velocities (2600 fps or so) the petals may shear off within the first 12” of penetration, but by that point they have done their damage and may have exited the animal. You can load them using published data for similar weight bullet regardless of construction. Just start out at lower end of the charge weight listed and progress up by about a grain until you start to notice early pressure signs then back off about a grain. The high BCs of the bullets increase the effective range by 25-50% compared to other bullets of similar or equal weight. [/QUOTE]
