[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 352526, member: 13833"] This is exactly what I have noticed. Bergers have a certain velocity spread where they are USUALLY effective! That range is somewhere between 2000 and 2700 give or take and depending on what you hit. If they expand early, they really come apart because they are a thin jacket and not bonded. If they don't expand early or hit something solid, they may not expand at all. This is very typical of a bullet with a meplat this narrow! I am not bad mouthing Bergers, I often use them myself. They, like all bullets have limitations. My opinion......Rich [/QUOTE]
