Unfortunately since it is five years old it does not include the new bonded bullets.

I' ve seen this three years ago...it' s great data........tbbcs sure look good don' t they?.....and another thing is the value of bonded bullets and round nose seems to be good as well.

I also like the looks of the Barnes bullets.....depending on what you' re hunting...it' s very good data.

I' d assume (yea I know) that the Nosler bonded bullets are similar to the other bonded bullets.......and Hornady' s innerbond bullets as well.

It' s a fine piece of work.

You know, the best hunting bullet out there is the one that you put right where you were aiming at.
I have shot Mule deer, whitetail, and Pronghorn. I used the " factory junk bullets" for all of them and as long as I do my part by putting them in the vital areas, all of the bullets worked.

i posted this as an informational paper for those who are into looking/testing/hunting etc

not as a debate item

your post almost mimics the first paragraph of the paper

I think it is great info. The author did a great deal of work putting this together. The premium bullets look good as most always but I am impressed with the Remington Round Nose CL. They compete well with the bullets on this chart all the way down to 1400 fps.

This is kind of funny seeing this post here. My wife is a cousin of the author.
The author Gary Sciuchetti personally gave me a hard copy of this article complete with a bullet poster for a wall hanging.
I am glad to see this information is still floating around on the internet. I can not recall the magazine that published Gary's bullet test, I think it was Shooting Times???
Gary also preformed some bullet tests on the Swift Scirocco's. He told me he really liked the Scirocco.
I will ask Gary over Christmas if he plans on putting together another artical & poster that will cover the bonded bullets also?
