When you look at any of the soft point bullet expansion tests through ballistic gelatin, they all look football shaped from the temporary and permanent stretch cavity and that stretch cavity gets smaller as the velocity is reduced. Matching the bullet to the game so that the permanent stretch cavity occurs closer to where the bullet exits would give you a larger exit wound would it not? I saw that on elk way better with a Trophy Bonded Bearclaw than I did with a Nosler Partition.
You're thinking too much. Just shoot the deer in the vitals and eat venison.
