I have been told that the PSP will mushroom after impact better than the SP.Any thoughts?

I honestly couldn't tell you, I've had a cpl bad experiences with the core-lokts just punching pinholes and have since quit using them. A lot of folks swear by them, so maybe someone else will chime in with opinions.

PSP= pointed soft point
SP= soft point (generally called a round nosed bullet)

From the Remington website:


Core-Lokt Soft Point
Soft point shape provides broad frontal area for high energy impact and rapid expansion. Bullet cores are “Lokt” in place to provide deep penetration. Jackets designed for progressive, reliable expansion to almost twice the original diameter.




Core-Lokt Pointed Soft Point
Spitzer shape profile for improved velocity and flatter trajectory. Bullet cores are mechanically locked in place to provide deep penetration. Jackets designed for progressive, reliable expansion to almost twice the original diameter.
