how the punch bullet would act differently from a hard cast in the same application. I can see how a soft point would cause more disruption, but don't understand how the punch bullet would differ from the hard cast as they are both designed to NOT upset and to drive through for full penetration.

Thanks for the first hand info on the hardcast on big bears. I've read a lot of armchair hunters theorizing on how that would be the best choice.
