I did some of the initial testing on the PP's (versus the RN) of the 9.3 Woodleigh's using a 9.3x64 as the gun as it allowed testing of the bullets from sub 9.3x74R velocities all the way up above the 64 velocities (ie pushed as far as it was safe to do so).

I used a German made 9.6x64 on a Mauser98 action.

IMHO, RN open up quicker at the same velocities than PP's.


Weight etc is the same and penetration is partly determine by how much the bullet opens up early on and provides greater frontal surface area.

I am happy with either, the PP designed definately helps in stopping lead tip damage but apart from that, chose what you like.

I like RN as I reckon they hit "harder" but that is a subjective thing.
