139gr Hornady Interbond

I used the 139 g IL in several 280s to take a lot of mulies and WT over the years. The bullet always worked well for me in my 280.
 
First post but I've been lurking for years. Absolutely love Nosler & Hornady bullets. A particular favorite of my hunting buddy and I is the 139gr Hornady Interbond in the 7mm-08. I loaded up some with Varget that shot well in his 20" barreled A-Bolt. Velocity was around 2715 fps. Shot into 1 gallon water jugs at 50 yards. Caught in the 4th jug IIRC (we did this test about a decade ago), but have shot a pile of deer out to 225+ yards with it. Always get exits & great blood trails. My buddy got a little artsy with the pics! I don't remember exact weight but it was over 90% weight retention.
I am curious on the diameter of that expanded bullet.
