[In referance to the PB site] Well that thinking is fine when you get to using it on deer but when you start hunting big bear elk and boar that have a heavy fur coat or extremly tough skin as well as weighing in at 3 to 8 times what the average deer does the penatration can be very important.
The problem for me here is that untill they do a little redesign or we find a way to make the hold together well enough with a reasonably heavy load of powder the rage and penatration are both limited. I believe that a more pointed shape and eliminating the hollow point would make them as popular as they used to be and much more effective on heavy game, in fact because of the design of some military bullets I have seen I am wondering about glueing or screwing a simple pointed plug into the hollow point when a heavy load is needed or a lot of penatration is needed.
