The targex from what I understand have a Berger jacker but with the hollow point slightly more open than the Berger to allow for more reliable expansion.

None of my loads are going warp speed either. Haven't chased velocity so much and both of my .243s have short barrels. They might behave differently going 200 fps faster.

Yes, Berger jackets. I think Bryne's "secret" lead core recipe is what makes Targex projectiles so effective.
