[QUOTE="Petey308, post: 2963621, member: 106845"] How consistently and evenly, and immediately, those petals open or separate will also determine how they are influenced and manipulated through tissues. If all that occurs unevenly, it can cause the bullet to veer off course as a result to either creating an imbalance, or material that allows the bullet to get pulled off course, usually tumbling. Higher RPMs definitely helps increases the stability factor, but it also increases centrifugal forces and those equate to higher G forces on material that begins to expand and peel away from the rest of the bullet. It helps more evenly, quickly, and consistently create petals and also separate them if so designed. Does the extra stability also help the remaining shank or remaining mushroomed mono travel straight? Yes, I’m sure it does, but my point is it’s only part of it and the added centrifugal forces help a ton and perhaps more than stability alone. [/QUOTE]
