I've always been under the impression that the cannelured versions actually hold together slightly better than the plain.
The cannelure strategically weakens the jacket so that it folds back a bit more at that point, tucking everything together a little tighter.

Probably one of my top ten favorite threads on the fire. I’ve read it about a dozen times. I haven’t landed a 222 yet, but I did happen across a nice 1:12 twist 223 Rem chambered M77 Ultra Light! The 55gr Power Points should do the trick.

The 55gr Hornady SP has a small boat tail now, how does it compare to the older flatbase version on deer?
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

No worries with the 55 SP. My son has had used them in my 22-250 with no problems.
