[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 3047725, member: 14204"] It boils down to personal preference/intended purpose, but the beauty of it all is that we have plenty of choices on lead and lead-free bullets. I stopped caring about bullet weight retention and pass-through over 20 years ago. If it is a pass-through, there would be no bullet to measure weight retention. I now prefer fragmenting bullets due to the internal damage it causes from massive energy transfer at POI, but not all bullets are created equal. I, too, am a meat hunter, and in 20+ years of using fragmenting bullets, meat damage is minimal, and I have not lost any game. I like bullets that dump all their energy on impact and do not need a pass-through to be effective. This is one of the reasons I transitioned to this type of bullet; it reduces the risk of shooting what is behind the target. This is my personal choice/preference, and I am in no way trying to convince anyone to do the same. I have a video example of such an incident. It was posted on the Internet, but it was taken down. However, others have made a copy of it. Choices, choices, choices ... [/QUOTE]
