[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2757674, member: 7999"] At first I was going to let you run off with [USER=40704]@300prc[/USER] but thought maybe you were actually interested in what I have to say. First off don't get fooled into thinking that [USER=40704]@300prc[/USER] and his little group are your friends. They don't like your product or what you are doing. They just hate me and are using you to try and get to me. To them you are just another worthless copper bullet maker. The Barnes are too hard and suffer with low velocity impacts. They don't shed weight so they don't create the shock upon impact that stuns or shuts down animals quickly. By maintaining the petals on the open nose they they make a rounded frontal area that creates less permanent wound. Also they slow down too rapidly also causing less permanent wound. Looks pretty for advertising photos though. Between the hardness and the attached petals they become susceptible to deflection and tumbling. Hard copper is not a good thing. Even if it is scored to aid it in opening. Very soft copper will not easily deflect off bone even on hard angling shots. Again, best of luck. [/QUOTE]
