[QUOTE="pods8, post: 1033659, member: 83233"] Barnes is a preference over need in my book, so far I've liked their performance over cup/core bullets, that is all. They expand solidly yet punch through bone as needed and don't scatter lead all over (weight that last point acording to your preference only, I realize lots of folks don't care and that's fine too). Other than rear lung shooting I don't see too much downside (other than cost!) to them. I don't need a 100% energy dump if the bullet just cut a channel through the heart or spine, etc. and an exit would is another spot for blood to exit if there is tracking involved (often a larger cut in the hide vs the pencil hole of the entrance). Again preference only, I shot sierra gamekings prior. [/QUOTE]
