[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1699133, member: 2736"] It is not unusual for a non bonded bullet to separate the core from the jacket. Going to a bonded bullet will help depending on the POI. There are some other bullets in the same weight class that you could try Like the 129 grain Accubond. (What I shoot in My 260 AI). I would recommend changing bullets only If the jacket separation bothers you. To help in your decision, weigh the core and the jacket to measure the weight loss of both bullets. If there is little difference then it is a non issue. Your second shot was closer, there fore the velocity was faster and bullet expansion should be more severe. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
