Looks like Lehigh controlled chaos not sintered but fracturing.......I guess depending on expectations it COULD be good, or it could disappoint. What are you wanting to do with it?Are liberty animal instinct 100 grain 308's any good ?

Yep.Why? It’s a pig. Any old cup and core in the 150 grs area at 2500 -2700 FPS is going to penetrate, expand, and kill hogs at any reasonable distance. They aren’t hard to kill. They require no exotic metals or designs.
I’ve loaded some 110 gr Varminter’s for my Savage Model 10 PC a few years ago. They were super accurate at shorter ranges, never really stretched it out past ~150 yards. I wonder how these would work in a 300 BLK.
If they're anything like Lehigh (and not being sintered I think that's still my closest comparison) the twist shouldn't tear em apart too bad, but they'll not likely get phenomenal penetration, the controlled chaos was designed for shallow multiple wound tracts with the tiny base pushing forward (picture a Barnes where the nose explodes rather than peeling back). It's a niche product for culling/control purposes but non lethal wounding would be too common in the wrong hands. Probably useful for home defense though come to think of it....My assumption would be that you’d need a pretty slow twist barrel to avoid having these come apart in mid flight, however, maybe their being monolithic negates that concern.
