C'mon Art....you know they do! Here and there,now and then. smile

BTW I'm not dumping on the penetration capabilities of a Barnes,or how they work. Just that any expanding bullet will be stopped sometimes.


The bear that stopped this one did not go 30 feet. What killed him,the two that exited and blew blood all over the beach, or this one that got trapped on the offside hide?

Quien Sabe? smile

The only X bullets I have seen stopped were in heavy service for their size... 80gr TTSX from a 25-06 into a huge-bodied bull moose coupled with finding the biggest bones in the whole skeleton. Two there.

The other was flukey in that a Sitka buck was bedded against a big rock. The bullet went all the way through the deer and got hung up in the hair on the opposite side after hitting the rock the buck was bedded against.

I do not understand how so many have caught so few NPTs and so many Xs... it does not work that way in my anecdotal World.

Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.
