Precise serrations divide the jacket into symmetrical sections, starting expansion even at lower velocities. The jacket thickness varies along its length, which gives you controlled, deep-penetrating expansion that plated bullets can't match with their uniform jacket. The swaged, non-vented core gives uniform density for balanced expansion and stable flight, and the protected nose keeps the hollow cavity intact for smooth feeding in semi-autos.
