Yep, there's a reason that the various SOG groups who get to choose their ammo, generally use 77 gr OTM bullets.

Surely nothing wrong with heavier tipped bullets, TSX's, various bonded bullets, Gold Dots, etc., either.................and IMHO, all of those are better choices that 55 gr FMJ of improved & more consistent performance.
