Have you checked them before and after?
Have not been shot yet. (Been slack) But feed OK.
Hoping they kill a tad better and still very be accurate.
I don't expect them to mushroom but might "start" to mushroom. Searching around suggests flat points kill better. I intend to put one through a few milk cartons full of water as part of the accuracy test.
I have measured a few with a mitutoyo micrometer and no measurable change to the diameter. But you can see they have been pushed back into the case by perhaps upto 0.010"
Flat points definitely kill better I used Keith type semi what cutter projectiles for about 7 years in the 90s left round noses for dead and our past 150 yards were far superior to jacketed Hollow Point bullets as well[/quote
More info pls. That sounds like centrefire?
