[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1476721, member: 41338"] A note about Barnes... I've used them on elk and antelope. Elk in 30 cal and antelope in .22 cal. In all cases, the critter just stood there with it's eyes bugged out for about 10 seconds and then tipped over. Shots were from 70 to 200 yards, broadside. Both were DRT with quarter sized exit holes. Actually, there was plenty of time to put a second into them. The mono copper bullets are no slouch at regular ranges. Frankly, I'm about ready to buy some Hammer Bullets and test them out. I doubt I'll ever hunt Africa unless some freaky Hollywood fool thinks I'm cute. For now though, I just cant swing it. If I could though, I'd be testing bullets like crazy. Actually, I wouldn't even carry a gun if I could get some good lessons from some of those great trackers. That's the real education. [/QUOTE]
