[QUOTE="coop2564, post: 2486113, member: 87214"] I've watched many ballistic gel videos the last few weeks on Berger's. Here's what happens with these bullets...and its not consistent. One of 3 things happen. Bullets open at tip and mushroom losing a lot of weight often 40% like Berger says, this is awesome IMO. Often tip does not open and tip gets torn off and tumbles then bullet starts self-destruction but often many inches into target...not good. Then at 2100 and below often doesn't open at all or just barely tears jacket and tumbles often again many inches into target. One thing that ballistic gel shows is that the tip opening and mushrooming is rare. The tip getting crushed and torn off is the more normal way and fragmenting. [/QUOTE]
