You may have missed my post about the Berger smashing the near side shoulder of a bull elk and going on to shred the lungs and lodging in the skin on the far side.
I'm not real sure how much more to expect from a bullet.
But it is normal to resist change and the next new thing. Like them or not, Bergers are starting to get popular with hunters who want their quarry to take a quick dirt nap.
Somebody had to try Partitions first too.
PS, I do like "heavy for caliber" projectiles.
