[QUOTE="Tcross, post: 2104581, member: 84907"] The Barnes bullets have always worked very well for me. I've read where people talk about small exit wounds, but it is what happens inbetween that matters. About 10 years ago I watched a slowmo video of a Barnes bullet hitting a deer in the vitals, and you could actually see the chest expand (from the hydraulic action?) as if it took a deep breath. Quick kill. So I decided to try them for a season. Sure enough, two Antelope and an Elk later, I was hooked and haven't used anything since. In ten years I have only recovered one bullet. And yes, small exit wounds. But when you open up an animal on a good vitals shot, the internal organs are usually liquified and just pour out. Hardly any meat damage. I don't mean to sound like a Barnes salesman, in fact, after reading about the Hammers, I would like to try those too. But I have developed loads for three calibers using five different Barnes bullets and will probably stick with them for a while. [/QUOTE]
