[QUOTE="Buckys, post: 2229313, member: 107750"] Like any cup and core bullet, if a core-lokt strikes at high velocity, there is a non-zero probability it could fragment prior to penetration. It has never happened to me but more than one of my hunting buddies has experienced that - e.g., 270wsm 130gr core lokts at 50 yards. I tend to use 270win, 150gr federal fusion or even 150 core lokt or power points where close range impact velocity is a lot lower than my buddy's experience. My 270wby and 280ai and 7mm mags are using 140 AB's partly for this consideration. No cup and core. [/QUOTE]
