[QUOTE="Buckys, post: 2404774, member: 107750"] I have seen direct evidence of unbonded lead bullets "exploding upon impact". Less than 100yds, 270wsm, 130 grains, broadside - first shot was in the boiler room, did not penetrate and left plenty of superficial damage to demonstrate POI. The follow-up shot was the kill shot. My hunting friend who made the shots became convinced that the specific brand/model of bullet was bad and I'm still trying to convince him that any of the other cup and core lead bullets would have done the same thing.
