Just bought a small box of 158 gr. Flat Point Hornady XTP's for my model 686. There's a small indentation in the nose, like a teeny version of the opening on a hollow point.
I know that the Hollow Point 158 gr. XTP's are good for small/medium game when shot placement is guaranteed. But what's the application for the flat point XTP's?
I am assuming you get deeper penetration and less expansion? Anyone had actual game experience with these bullets?
Thanks,
Rich
