id say the Woodleigh acts a little "softer" on expansion and every one ive seen has folded out the same as the advert whereas the Accubond was more often going through them under 100m (bit harder) but once out 150 or so + the accubonds would hang in the fur- in saying this many woodleigh in a heavy for cal will punch through + expand.

i use lighter stuff, say a 150 in .308/06 140 in 7-08, 130 in .270 etc.

they reall should be a Top class NZ projectile for most bush hunters- understandable to the long sleek ELDx an GC models are favoured but thats part an parcel with the image too---


with woodleighs ya largely end up with the projectile in the fur with good amount of trauma.
