The 220gr SMK will not expand.
This is direct from Midway's for the Cor-Bon 220 subs and 125 supers:
Cor-Bon uses flash-suppressed powder along with skived bullets with scored jackets to offer high-velocity defense loads that expand quickly with high weight retention and without the fear of over-penetration. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer-primed, reloadable brass cases.
Guess it's either a generic description or intentionally false advertising. Not cool either way if you were expecting an expanding subsonic round for HD. Somebody should call them on it...
Are there any issues with the Vmax's due to the fact they do not have a cannelure? I had some concerns with set back due to the relatively low powder densities and short length of the bullets. If I loaded this round I would still crimp. Anyone have this issue?
