[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 882656, member: 2693"] Well, look at Nosler Ballistic Tips. They have a checkered history among those of us who use them or used to use them. They are a flawless bullet in my experience since 1989 on deer and pronghorn antelope, absolutely flawless....arguably the most accurate hunting bullet ever designed. But there's no shortage of users who report blow ups time after time. Not my experience, and I don't believe Nosler duped anyone. Same for Hornady when they put out their version of the NBT, the SST. I had never seen the results of any bullet blowing up on anything until that TX pronghorn I posted. If that's what others had seen with NBTs, then I don't blame them. I've just never seen it and I'm happy to use them in the future. Look at the original Barnes X bullet. Same mixed history. I thought and still think the original X bullet was about as inaccurate as they came and so much so I never used them on game. Then the TSX came out and suddenly I found a tougher-than-nails bullet that was equal in accuracy or better than the NBT. But again, look at those who say they pencil through. Not in my experience. As far as I'm concerned, the NBT and TSX, and TTSX are all 100% perfect performers 100% of the time on each deer, bear, pronghorn I've used them on. I've had one repeated inconsistent experience in my firearms hunting history and that is with the Accubond. [/QUOTE]
