The length of the shaft will depend on which weight bullet it is - ie the 300 grain will have a longer shaft than the 250 and the 250 will have a longer shaft than the 200 grain.
That is why I indicated to you that those 250's that Semisane posted were expanded to the max leaving less shaft than the 300 grain.

Yes I see that, I think both will do the job, the 250g appear to me to open faster, which is better in a low energy FL, but I like the 300g for penetration. That is just me however. I sight in 50 yards andkeep my shots to no more than 70 yards with the FL and open sights.
Thanks for all the pictures of the GD, I think a lot of folks are learning a lot, about expansion, penetration and fragmentation in different bullets. Very good.
