Do you think you can tell the difference in cartridge or caliber based on the wound? I thought it might be fun to post some pics to illustrate how much bullet construction effects performance. Here's my last one. What do you think? [img] https://imgur.com/a/TJXwO3S[/img]

Not really, but the second image is funny as hell relatively.
Probably not a Barnes and probably not real slow.

I would guess some type of frangible design like a TMK or Berger with just-right SD and velocity at impact.

Dun-no... But it reminds me of some photos i've seen on Nathan Fosters Ballisticstudies.com website... He uses the Hornady 162 gn A-max (now called ELD-M) @ 2600 fps out of a 7x57 or 7mm-08 to get devastating DRT wounds... I guess the sierra 160 TMK works similar... Almost decapitating game on neck shots...

Who knows? I sure can't tell. I've seen stuff like that from 12 ga. slugs, but also from 444 Marlins. A lot depends on the range, velocity, shot angle, etc.
