@ Hardrock,..
My Experience was that, ( 140 grain, Cl hunt Bergers ) ARE, a HARD Bullet that, penetrates very well and NOT too, Destructive.
Worked real well at, 115 Yards on, an Elk with, a 1 1/2 inch, exit wound and about 7-8 "Fragments", in top of Lungs, that, made "Mush" out of them.
I used, a lot of Hornady, Flat Based, 150 SP's Interlocks, before that, in my .270 Wby and they worked, real well too for, Deer.
I always found that, the the Lighter Sierra Bullets, were, a Bit UN-predictable,.. in Expansion !
A 125 grain Sierra, in my ole' .30-06, "Penciled" thru, a Muley Buck and made me,.. a LONG Tracking Job !
Hornady's, WERE always,.. "Better" at killing stuff, close to,.. DRT !
