[QUOTE="Jerry D, post: 1863890, member: 14452"] Thanks for feedback. I guess the whole point of the topic is basically, if the bullet is the same design, with a similar SD, travelling at the same speed, penetration can be assumed to be similar as well, even if the calibers of the bullets vary. People probably considered a 180 cup and core bullet from a .30-06 or .300 win mag enough for bears years ago, with the new bonded and copper bullets, a 130-140 6.5mm should have as much or more penetration but the wound channel may be smaller.
