I'm pretty much anal retentive when it comes to terminal ballistics and while it's difficult for any bullet maker to design bullets of different calibers to all perform alike at the same given velocity, this is what I've collected over the years:

Barnes LRX: 1600
Barnes TTX, TTSX: depending on who you get on the phone 1900 to 2000
Federal Edge TLR: 1350 (a true long-range bullet), most other current Federal hunting bullets like Fusion, including the new Terminal Ascent: 1800
Hornady InnerLock: 1800
Hornady GMX, InterBond, SST: 2000
Nosler Accubond Long Range: 1300 (another true long-range bullet)
Nosler Ballistic Tip, Accubond, Partition: 1800
Sierra Game Changer: 1600
Sierra GameKing & ProHunter: 1800
Swift Scirocco II: 1700
Speer Boattail Soft Point: 1600
New Speer Impact: 1800
Woodleigh WeldCore: officially 1900 but most expand well down to 1700

Hope this helps; just remember that expansion is dependent on bullet construction, impact velocity, AND target medium resistance, which is how stout your game is; for example, a bullet that may expand beautifully on a thousand-lb elk may blow through a 100-lb whitetail doe leaving nothing more than pencil holes in and out.
