eg. older more delicate dg versus new more robust dg. I shoot and hunt with my newer dg, and have no problem with mono nor any other kind of bullets.



IMHO it is not just a matter of old versus new, it is a matter of barrel thickness as much as metal strength. At the end of the day, I don't believe that at NE speeds, monometals are really needed when perfectly good FMJ solids are available. At faster speeds I can see the point, but most often this implies bolt rifles with thicker barrels anyway.
At the price of a new H&H or WR, I don't think many will try the new versus old theory either!




My experience is 180* opposite. Flat nose mono solids far outpenetrate round nose solids. So at the relatively modest NE velocities the flat nose solids provide a significant increase in effectiveness while the round nose steel jacketed solids out of, say, a 458 Lott or 470 Mbogo rather than a 450NE or 470NE, leave nothing to be desired in the first place and the improved penetration of the flat nose solids is immaterial.

But the former North Forks and current GS Custom flat nose solids are driving band bullets and safe in a double anyway since the shank of the bullet is at or below diameter between lands.
