Thanks for the question, Bart

GeauxTide, those spitzers having more bearing surface will give less pressure if their jacket's are softer, thinner, shaped slightly different or slightly smaller in diameter than others. I doubt the difference will be measureable anyway. Have you measured the pressure difference, or are you only guessing?
I'd be willing to guess that Hornady or Nosler (for example) use the same jacket material and 308 diameter in their spitzers as their 30-30s, with the exception of the bonded lines. Then, it's no guessing that a longer bearing surface would give more pressure.
