Hunters have debated the virtues and drawbacks of monolithic copper bullets for many years.
Traditional copper bullets are limited by their slower controlled expansion and high weight retention. They still create a permanent wound cavity, but it’s smaller than that of a similar lead-core bullet. In recent years, several different copper bullet makers have developed projectiles that accomplish terminal performance results placing them in an entirely different category than traditional copper bullets. The two biggest things these different designs have in common are violent expansion and a front segment of the bullet which tears or breaks apart into petals that peel off from the shank and create additional wound channels.
