[QUOTE="Tiny, post: 4719877, member: 18962"] While I dont for fact here Have read a good deal on both the old Silver Tip n Bronze Pt My understanding in both is A metal tip out of alum.colered silver or bronze. Originally used to "delay" expansion n protect the bullets nose allowing penetration before exspansion.If memory serves both are setting on top of the lead core.. I have heard the Bronze point was a company out of Canada that Remington / Peter's got with for US import into there ammo line. The silver tip did undergo design changes over time... not sure on the bronze point. Both were said to hive John Nolser the ideal of the Ballistic Tip to there Solid Base line..More so the Bronze Point than the Silver Tip.. Have heard good n bad over time on both. some swear by them others hate em.. While I have never seen any that I recall do know Remington at 1 time had em in 30/30 30 Rem etc.etc.etc.an certain weights n calibers in there line. Ending up with 150 n 180 gr 30/06 @2900 + n 130 270Win. While I dont know for sure I do believe Win. Deer Season line is a revamped Silver Tip Plastic tip vs Alu. I have no ideal on them but the Browning version with nickel shot darn good in 2 of my 06s recently.. I May have some older Remington boxes or catalog that goes into more detail on the Bronze Point design...somewhere LOL BTW I have mentioned for info on such to couple gun writers nothing back yet anyway nor expect. I Mentioned on another thread,n here I have 5 boxes of original ammo bronze points. 1 of those has another ring just forward of the crimping groove kinda like the older Hornady Interlocks did. When Time allows n I think of will investigate them n try to cut one down if possible to see if any difference. [/QUOTE]
