When we switched to widespread use of SBRs we moved to the 75grain Gold Dot because it was what would reliably expand at lower velocities. The lighter bullets are made to be pushed fast and hold together at those speeds. Blue, Do you have any info comparing the GD's performance to a Hornady 75 BTHP or a Sierra 77 SMK or a TMK? Either in gel or some other test? Thanks. MM
