[QUOTE="littlebighorn, post: 2860221, member: 112108"] I was a die hard Barnes guy for 20 years. They performed very well for me in multiple cartridges and bullet weights and I imagine they still do. I think they are a great hunting projectile. That said, a few years ago I came across Hammers Bullets, which are also mono copper bullets and I decided to try them. They were so easy to work up and more accurate than my experience with Barnes that I have switched in all my hunting rifles. While I never experienced it with Barnes, I had heard stories of them "penciling" through an animal with little expansion. Hammers have a fragmenting tip and that gives me more confidence that I won't experience a penciled hit. The last few years I have had great success with Hammers. I shoot the 124g HH in my 6.5x284 and the 99g HH in my 6.5 Creedmoor for what that's worth. [/QUOTE]
