Dave have you noticed the bottom of that bullet. It is not the typical flat bottom bullet, in fact when I first pointed it out several years ago to Mr. RW, he told me that you can not shoot a non-flat bottom bullet acccurately, and that he did not have good luck with them.

The concave base is desgned to help stabilization of the bullet (reduce wobble) but it needs to be shot with a velocity that allows the base to work in the air.

The bullet is an excellent hunting bullet, it's bonded contruction hold it together even at the highest velocities and the .232 BC doesn't hurt anything either....

Here are some examples of exanded Gold Dots/Deep Curls. These were 'torture tested' - they really should have come apart.
