I’ll put it up to, well .......... unknown variations.
Grayfox, I offer my apologies if I offended you. My intention was only to clear up my unclear explanation in the previous post. I appreciate all of the help.

I don't get any of that with the other plastic tipped bullets I've tried. In addition to the deformation of the tips, I'm getting some strange, horizontal striations around the bullets with lead tips and I don't get they with the plastic tips. Don't know what's going on but it has me concerned about using the lead tipped bullets for hunting because all those marks and warps on the bullets could lead to a FTF at a critical time.
Mike, I know I sound like a broken record but take a look at the 90 & 100 grain tipped game changers from Sierra. You’ll get all of the performance of the prohunters and interlocks without the deformed lead tips which will effect accuracy. YMMV but the 90 grain TGK’s shoot very well in my rifle, if the SST’s had not worked out so well for me the 90 TGK was my next choice.
