Who Wants An EXPANDING 200-240 Grain Bullet?

If ever you've dreamed of having an expanding bullet for use in Whisper sub loads, it's time to sound off. Berry's bullets has begun to look at the possibility of making such a creature for us. This is an established company with the ability to make this happen. They are looking for feedback from you on this project. Let 'em hear what you have to say. Respond here or in the following thread started by the folks from Berry's http://www.quarterbore.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3086.

What kind of accuracy are you getting with these puppies? Are they expanding on game as they turn sideways? Do they exit the animal? Details man! Details!

9.9 grs of VV N110 gets me 1075 fps out of a 16" SSK AR. Groups are 1.25" @ 100 yds. I have caught bullets in wet newsprint, but not in a deer. I have shot two deer and both bullets did the same thing. They went in, turned sideways, and exited. The exit hole is sideways. It is also shorter and more blunt than the full size bullet. The bullet expands in everything I shoot it in so I have no doubt it's expanding. I'm going to be hunting the rest of the week with the 458 version of this bullet. If I pop a deer with the SOCOM, I will put a Whisper bullet length ways so I can catch the bullet.

I dropped a note to the folks that made the bullets as shown on the Corbin site ... no response yet. Finally found your source as you listed it on the thread you posted ... will contact them. (They certainly aren't inexpensive ... actually slightly more than 500 gr Woodleigh Weldcore softs for the .458. Ouch!)
