I have been doing some reading on WFN type bullets (.452) for hunting applications and their ability to combine excellent penetration with larger-than-caliber wound channels. My hunting (deer/pigs) is mainly at very close range so the long range aerodynamics are not a huge concern.
Question #1.... what is the largest meplat (>80%) hardcast bullet for .452 that is commercially available in a 255-280 grain loading?
Question #2.... what about full wadcutters for hunting or even turning a bullet around so that the flat base is pointed forward? This would theoretically give you near 100% meplat.
I’m currently loading 265gr WFNGC Cast Performance over 15gr of 2400.
Sorry if these questions are dumb, I’m still learning. Thanks!
