[QUOTE="Stgraves260, post: 509051, member: 19988"] LOL!! Ok I told you it would be a bad example. What im getting at is the bigger something is the harder it is to crush. It takes more energy to make a 200grn bullet to expand or mushroom than a 130grn bullet. I dont know how else to explain it. Even if its the same caliber or not. If a ford pinto runs into a brick wall at 55mph it will crush the car. If a 18 wheeler hit the brick wall at 55mph it might slow down a little but it will keep moving just fine. Now if the 18 wheeler hit that same wall at 100mph it would crush the truck. Its simple science. It takes more energy to knock something bigger over than something smaller. I didnt design the bullets. Im just going by what the manafacture tells me. "The proes". It takes 2000fps to make a 210grn bullet to expand from a 30 cal rifle. If for some crazy reason there was a 210grn bullet for a 6.5 cal rifle It would'nt need the 2000fps to expand. Because its less big around.

You can lie to anyone in the world. But you can not lie to yourself. I have done these test myself with my 260 rem and my 7mm rem mag.
