[QUOTE="TexasSportsman, post: 1959633, member: 115081"] I had the same question for my .22-250 so I called these manufactures and they stated that Federal American Eagle 50gr , Remington UMC 50gr and the PPU 55gr all require a minimum of 1600 fps to expand which is out to 500 to 550 yards for hunting purposes. Most ammo will reach out well past 500 yards but not recommended for hunting because they won't expand but pass through leaving little or no blood trail. On the other hand if your shooting steel plates then expansion isn't an issue. Just the clang! of a hit. [/QUOTE]
