As I stated before. Also read about why FMJ bullets were required for war yet you cannot use them for hunting. I would bet they will penetrate much further than any hunting round you can find but I can also guarantee that you will see that they don't do much damage and are intended to wound the target rather than kill.
What has been your observations when shooting game with various types of bullets from various types of cartridges? You obviously have some thoughts on the subject so I’m curious about your experience.
