I'm not saying I ever used Sierra 180 grain match boat tails on game.
I am saying that at 600 yds., the 180 grain match bullets fired from my M1A expanded to dime sized lumps of lead when they hit the dirt bank behind my targets. I dug up several of them. The jackets peeled back along the lines in the jacket, the lead expanded fairly evenly and the core popped out of the jacket.
