[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1398129, member: 10291"] [ATTACH=full]89864[/ATTACH] The most consistent expansion I have seen was with the traditional lead nosed Nosler Partitions. that ran around 50%. The rear end of the bullet behaves like solid. With the non-partition, lead core designs retained weight seem to be dependent on the bullet path through the animal. Shown: was an angle, rear rib entry, front far rib landing, under the hide of a big bodied mule deer, DRT. A 142 JLK VLD from my 6.5x284, impact velocity about 2000FPS. Retained 61%. I have had performance with this bullet range from core separation to +60% as shown when retrieved. Pass through are generally 1” entrance, 2-3” exit. Regardless of the degree of expansion it’s been a very consistent killer with good placement to 1700FPS impact velocity. [/QUOTE]
