I tried to use superhammerhead for two consecutive seasons.
30-06, SHH, 150 grain.
On thin skinned game, roe deer, it passes through like FMJ.
Sometimes the game does not even show the sign of being hit.
My reasoning at the time (trying to be smart) was:
Almost 900 m/sec MV (declared 2953 fps) , will certainly initiate expansion, and in the same time, with light bullet I will stretch the trajectory for longer shots. Lighter mass, will be compensated with bonding, it will not loose weight or disintegrate. Oh, how wrong I was.
Accurate it was - sub moa. (in fact most accurate bullet in my sako 85, ever)
Trajectory, very flat indeed.
But roe deer kept walking away, after being hit in vital zone, each time I had to follow blood spoor. 200 meters from the position where they were hit, 150 meters blood spoor, or not showing the sign of hit, getting shot for second time.... (that was once)
SO, I went back to nosler ballistic tip, for roe deer, and never looked back. (with usual DTR effect on roe)
So, that was my affair with bonded bullets for thin skinned game. Thanks, but no thanks.
Different story, for red deer, and boar... I use different approach in choice of ammo.
