If any of those bullets arrive in the vitals with enough velocity to initiate proper expansion, it's game over for any animal in NA.
My point exactly. The BC has a direct impact on the distance a bullet can perform as intended. A 150gr expanding as intended will do more damage and have more knock down ability than a 200gr bullet simply poking a hole.
