[QUOTE="tbentz, post: 2661185, member: 115889"] I'm worried the problem is with the cold temps' effect on the secant ogive, thicker metal at the tip, etc. known issues with VLD Hunts, that are tipped over the "edge" by cold temp, and the stiffer metal. Maybe drill bit will help, but losing another elk is not worth finding out if drill bit vs. visually inspecting resolves, unless someone can confirm on here that similar conditions are not affecting their bullets in the same way, in which case, I'd be left to assume this was either anomalous, or could be resolved by drill bit. Basically I'm looking for empirical evidence that directly contradicts my own, otherwise I think it's time to switch to the hybrids. [/QUOTE]
