Default RE: What are fragmenting bullets to you?

: a part broken off, detached, or incomplete

I would hafto agree this is how we should look at fragmenting bullets. I'm not big on keeping bullets that are found but i have a few. I also got some help from some Barnes shooters.Bullets that weren't considered fragmenting bullets are now.

Example:

1- 275grn Parker BE, recovered bullet weight is 235grns
2- 195grn Knight Red Hot, 170grns recovered.
3- 175grn Knight red Hot, 167grns recovered
4- 300grn Barnes MZ Expander, 288grns

I'm going to get some more bullets this weekend. I do have a 300grn XTP that was recovered as well. It was 199grns out of a Boar. I think we all expected that. I will also say a Lehigh is a controlled fragmenting bullet.
