kind of.
there really is poor or minimal information out there about how bullets behave [other than here are our perfect looking mushrooms] and worse yet a description in any depth on their construction.
one of the better ones believe it or not is reading Hornadys descriptions of their bullets.
they simply state the construction of each bullet and it's possible uses.
if you combine that with some in the field results at various velocity's things become a little clearer why you seen what you saw when you used that brand X bullet in various calibers.
[hint: the interlocks are better constructed than their double the price bonded ones]
where a larger confusion comes in is when makers aren't consistent across the board with their jacket thickness and core alloy combinations and you end up with varying results when using the same name on the box.
