Yeah that was my line of thought with the AB's, that they may be too solid for certain distances. We all know that the 162 Amax is pretty frangible hence it still expanding very well at lower impact velocity. The closest ive shot deer with them is 200 yards, and the Amax still performed beautifully. Id rather use a bullet that expanded very well imparting a heap of shock and anchoring it where it stands, than use a bullet that is too heavily constructed and not expand that well.
Im not bothered if i make a mess of the front shoulders, i cant carry all the meat off a decent red anyway.
