Ron.....You know penetration isn't the whole thing to look for in a bullet. A hard cast bullet will pencil right through an animal, and the animal can stand there like it wasn't even hit.

Hit the same animal with an expanding bullet, and it gets knocked down.

Of course I don't mean a pancake expansion either. We need a compromise. Good expansion, decent penetration, and big wound channel.
