[QUOTE="TRG65, post: 2530597, member: 103919"] I have used pointed bullets for years for targets/match shooting. I use the Whidden bullet pointing system. The end result is the same a significantly smaller meplat to increase BC and BC consistency. I have used some of these, both just pointed and ones that have been pointed and trimmed, for shooting groundhogs because it was what I happened to have when I saw them on the farm. Pointed bullets do not expand well, and I would never recommend you use them for hunting. On the groundhogs that I've shot, I've found blood trails, but never the body. (6mm Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor, and 7WSM). Always makes it down in the hole. With a plastic tip match bullet or with a hunting bullet, the body is lying where it gets hit. For farm crop protection, either way is fine, it is just more satisfying to see the result. [/QUOTE]
