Agreed. Monometals have worked great for me with muzzle velocities 3200fps and up, where the hunting range is 350yds or less. For my slower cartridges I prefer a Partition or Interlock. Recently I have loaded some Sierra Tipped Gamekings, hoping they will have good performance as well.
I think more people need to identify their expected impact velocity for their intended hunting range and cartridge. Then choose a bullet based off that information. Most bullets are well constructed, just intended to expand at a specific velocity range.
