Did Anyone have time to shoot & test 200 Grain GDHP & camapre it to the 200 Grain XTP? Who won?

475/480

I have shot the Hornady 200gr , Nosler 200gr HP and the Speer GDHP into wetpack. ALL at 1220 fps on target. The Nosler 200gr beat ALL of them in regard to weight retention (190+gr ) and expanded diameter ( .650"+ ) , They were posted on this forum.
The Hornady 200 XTP bullet had OK weight retention but when the bullet expanded it  lost part of the outer jacket.
The Speer 200 GDHP shed the cutting petals at ALL velocities , 1050,1180,1220 fps ,which left only the shank driving thru the target . I will shoot the GDHP's at 900 fps just to see what happens.
