[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 1073442, member: 6452"] I've done some milk jug expansion tests with the 150 Etips out of my .308. Starting off a couple hundred fps slower than the 7mag with fewer RPMs too and the expansion at 1800 fps is nothing I would right home about. Like was posted above 2000 fps if not 2200 fps is probably a more realistic threshold for mono metal expansion. In my experience they are not competitive with a cup and core high BC like a Berger at extended ranges. One more reason I set a limit of 600 yards on myself. [/QUOTE]
