I know its an ongoing debate, but of all the ballistics I've read, the heavier round performed better. I'm sure some brands don't do as well, but as far as the HST the heavier did show it to be a better performer.

For some, the criteria is excellent penetration with reasonable expansion--180grain.

For others, their standard is great expansion with reasonable penetration--155. For some, the 165 is the best of both worlds-- for other it's not the best of either world.

For some, it has to penetrate car doors and windshields.

Pick what ever criteria you want. You get something, you give something up.

My standard is how it works on Bubba in an extreme emergency in my hallway, or in the parking lot.
