So my choices are SPBT and HPBT...correct?

Looking for a general purpose bullet, we might put it that way, indeed.

What many of us seem to forget is that bullets, all of them, are nothing but a compromise between penetration and expansion (we could add accuracy to make it even more interesting and or confusing...). Too soft a bullet will give superb expansion but might fail to penetrate deep enough. Too hard, a bullet will penetrate lengthwise, making pencil holes.

I suggest therefore that the case of the perfect bullet be linked with another myth, i.e. the universal rifle/caliber, in order to guarantee many more years of our ongoing discussions... wink
