[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 2213721, member: 11960"] Expanding bullets seem like a good idea right up until you see what actually happens! I watched my father-in-law put 4 shots into a black bear with a 45 Win Mag shooting 230gr JHPs (Noslers loaded in Underwood Ammo). Only 1 of those bullets made it into the chest at 50 yards. The rest failed to penetrate through the ribs. Bullet choice matters more than caliber sometimes. [/QUOTE]
