[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2898554, member: 109862"] But I think we all know what he’s talking about here. Moreover “frangible” as a word unto itself simply means brittle, or prone to breaking into many fragments. But I do know what you’re talking about, the Barnes varmint Grenades and MPG rifle rounds come to mind as do a number of sintered metal core pistol rounds. I don’t think anyone is advocating we use those for big game hunting here. But if we’re being technical we could further clarify: controlled expansion with some degree of intended weight retention vs complete fragmentation as the intended outcome. In my post above, the federal trophy bonded tip is a great example of the former, the hornady eld match is a great example of the latter. Both are extremely effective at killing. [/QUOTE]
