[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1636214, member: 75451"] With over 25 years of Barnes X,TSX,TTSX use, we’ve never experienced what you’ve seen.....though anything can happen at any given time. Granted the Berger’s give dramatic results, but perform best on broadside shots (according to many reports) or longer shots where velocity is somewhat lower. For elk, or any large game.....I want a bullet that will stay together on shots taken, measured in feet, or on a large, heavy bodied animal when a “raking” shot is required. Granted, impact velocities should be above 1900 fps, for optimum results.....somewhat limiting the range at which game should be taken! Though, I guess if “only” cows are on the menu, and the hunter is patient enough for the perfect shot, passing on less than desirable shots....the the “grenade” is a great choice! For the best of both worlds, penetration, and “some” fragmentation....the Hammer Bullets would be a great bullet choice! memtb [/QUOTE]
