[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2999157, member: 75451"] I guess it depends upon the game being shot and the ranges! Generally speaking, a typical cup and core at a modest impact velocity will do great on most game…..unless a great deal of penetration is required! Often their large frontal area due to expansion, and their typical bullet weight loss hinders penetration! The game changes a bit if the impact velocity is high, and the game being shot may require several feet of penetration to get to the vitals…..often encountering thick hide, heavy bone, and/or dense muscle in route to the vitals. The coppers will do pretty well on smaller big game, provided the impact velocity is within the velocity expansion window! memtb [/QUOTE]
