[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 2041596, member: 13632"] How, unless you know the chemistry of the components and shoot them into the same media you won't be able to actually compare them apples to apples, you can have a thin jacket bullet that is more resistant to opening because of the chemistry in the copper or a harder lead core. You can have a thicker jacket but dead soft that looks awesome for holding together but because it's dead soft it actually mushrooms back quite easy. I've worked on a couple bullets and there was definite changed when the cup type was changed or the lead alloy and in mono's there is a LARGE difference in how they function based on the chemistry.
