[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2445740, member: 30902"] I've shot a boat load of hogs with the XTP's in .40 S&W, 10mm, .41 Mag, .44 Mag, and .45ACP. The old Winchester Dual Bond, which was essentially a bullet inside of a bullet was the best deep penetrating expanding bullet perhaps of all time but they were expensive to produce and eventually no longer profitable for Winchester so they were discontinued. The only time I've ever gotten into trouble with the XTP's requiring several follow up's was when things were pretty wild and I kept putting them into the shield of a big boar. Can't blame the bullet for that. Many years ago there was a manufacturer who's name now escapes me that produced a hard cast lead HP that had a Tungsten dart in the center and they were awesome but the "cop killer bullet" craze forced them to cease production. Those penetrators would give you a complete pass through shoulder to shoulder on even the biggest of boars. [/QUOTE]
