[QUOTE="Scot E, post: 1248080, member: 10832"] I have a feeling, based on this info and a couple other threads on the Hide that were discussing something similar, that the match bullets all have a bit less of a void beneath the tip compared to their X cousins. This actually makes sense in many ways because the Amax bullets didn't blow up like what some are seeing with the X. And when you think about it, those that have messed with enlarging or uniforming the meplat, it doesn't take much to make a huge difference in expansion. It also makes some sense as this bullet was in general built for the LR hunting game so increased expansion at range would be desirable but one may need to be careful up closer. Interesting info. Thanks for sharing! [/QUOTE]
