[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2807846, member: 109862"] To elaborate on my prior comments further: the 130 interlock in my experience penetrates every bit as well as the 140 and 150 interlock, seems easier to load to higher energy, and seems to visit a lot more violence upon whatever is hit, probably due to the higher impact velocity inside 300 yards and the lower sd related to target resistance on whitetail sized critters. I’ve had it exit a double shoulder hit deer…more than once. The 150 is very good too, but for whatever reason the 140 btsp interlock is very underwhelming. Easy to load for, decent bc, but it just doesn’t seem to have that instant reaction that lets you know you made a solid chest shot the way it’s flat based brothers do. I don’t know why. It does have less exposed lead at the tip than either the 130 or the 150, that probably does have something to do with it. All 3 I have recovered from deer as well over the years from time to time. Haven’t seen that interlock ring fail to do what it says it does with any of them, might as well be partitions honestly. Except the 220 round nose 30 cal interlock. That thing blew up real hard 🤣😱 [/QUOTE]
