Default RE: Hollow Points Or Solids

The only problem I see is if they are over driven into big game. Same thing I feel with the powerbelts. The XTP is made to be driven at .44mag velosities.

We have now exceeded that with our modern m/l so we need to look more for a high speed rifle bullet. The fp Interlock I shoot will go through 1/4 plate steel pretty clean. Close to what a .308 will. XTP's leave the shell behind and make a smaller hole. I am sure the lead is sprayed beyond that as well..

I know it has nothing to do with game but I find it fun and interesting to look what bullets do to steel.
