[QUOTE="Petey308, post: 2330026, member: 106845"] Keep in mind, as I’ve stated, even cup and core bullets are used outside their own limitations, poor results tend to follow. Too little sectional density matched with too much impact resistance a lot of times is to blame for a lot of the poor performance people see and talk about. I’m also one that believes in a quick and humane death of the animal is more important than meat wasted or not. I’m definitely not trying to lose meat, but I do want to kill the animal fast and without suffering. I’ve seen many lead core bullets do this, and without exiting, and with coming apart a good deal. I do not translate this to poor performance if it is consistent and reliable. Bloodshot meat is not desirable, but ultimately if the animal dies humanely and I’m left with an easy recovery I’m satisfied. Most of the time the meat that is lost is much less that you’re led to believe. This is when shot placement is key as well. [/QUOTE]
