    A very soft projectile which will shine at longer ranges. Short range I think shot placement will be important.
    A mate shot a pig at 100 yards which i skinned, raking forward shoulder to head. Full jacket separation. Did the job but seemed very soft to me, although pigs have a very thick shield
    Cheers for the report. Good to see more of them coming through

    Yep that’s Berger’s alright, designed to fragment and do “catastrophic” wounding
