The other day some of us were discussing bullets, case length and such regarding the 35Rem. The question about the Hornady 200gr FTX vs SP was mentioned. I didn't have access to a jewlers saw so made do with a hacksaw. Here are the pictures of both bullets sectioned and length measured for comparison. Hard to see but doesn't appear to be much if any difference in jacket thickness. The obvious difference is the nose cavity in the FTX. Maybe someday I or someone will poke a deer with the SP to see how it performs. I know from personal experience that the FTX does fine. Dan.
