[QUOTE="rost495, post: 61371, member: 1768"] What I fail to see is how a barnes thats shed a petal or four, would be any different than a lead core bullet thats peeled back, encouters same bone and tears its edges off. It will continue to penetrate, possibly not in a straight line as the core and jacket may well bend. But I don't think its gonna try to expand further or else it wouldn't be a controlled expansion projectile. If that is the case, then its no different than the X going through. FMJ as you say. Any thoughts? BTW you can bet that more animals are wounded by the non X bullets than will ever be by the actual X bullets. Simply by a fact of numbers and math. And possibly added to the odds factor by the fact that anyone that takes the time to work with and shoot X bullets is probably beyond the average rifleman. Jeff [/QUOTE]
