[QUOTE="tcknight, post: 327618, member: 15615"] I have found the Gamekings to be too unreliable on expansion. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I think the problem is the thicker jacket. In my .243, I shoot 75 grain Hornady Hollow Points. They are much more likely to expand every time which saves pelts. The V-Max and Ballistic tips have given me problems with pre-mature expansion which leaves big craters in the pelt. However, if you reload you could probably slow them down some and alleviate that problem. Another good bullet is an old timber but effective none the less. That is Remingtons PowerLokt hollow point bullet. I still prefer them over the modern plastic tip bullets if you are loading hot loads. [/QUOTE]
