If you have ammo with over 500 fps variation in velocity you have some seriously crappy ammo. Even half that much is way out of spec. From the pictures posted and Kurt's description it is pretty clear the bullet failed to penetrated because it blew up on the bone. Not at all unusual for Berger bullets.
