[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1251330, member: 4566"] I was shooting Bergers at critters and being excoriated for it a loooong time ago. Then it became OK. Then they had to make different colored boxes so it was MORE OK. Match smatch. Hunting smunting. Tactical smacktical. OTM blowtm. As long as they will expand or even jackknife at the velocity and stability you are running them at I don't give 2 boinks at a rolling spherical pastry that cops love to eat. Yes when Berger switched they were all the same bullet. IDC which is which, as long as they don't pencil, they will do the job. Worrying about bullet construction is so 1980s. It used to matter when we shot short for caliber stuff that needed bonded due to a lack of lasers. Nowadays we can shoot a high SD frangible bullet and get results way beyond what was common back then. We have kind of gone OLD SCHOOL by not caring how its built, just will it hit, expand and penetrate, not how its "bonded" or "Locked" or some such nonsense. [/QUOTE]
