This is the reason I contacted Berry's to start with. I just killed a doe last Friday with a 240 SMK. Slight quartering-to shot. 30 cal entrance hole and 30 cal exit hole. No tumbling at all even after hitting the spine and deflecting down and out through the ribs on the other side. IMHO, an expanding bullet would be much more of a game stopper than continuing to HOPE for the bullet to tumble.
