JJ,

I apologize if I come off sounding harsh but what does it mean to be "sponsored by Barnes"?

I pretty much wrote Barnes bullets off when Ty Herring wrote hunters should aim for the shoulders when shooting big game animals in heavy brush about 4.5 yrs ago in the Barnes newsletter. Folks were writing and complaining about slow kills and losing animals in heavy cover when using TSXs. Of course in a couple days the newsletter was edited and that blurb was deleted.

You've shared some interesting and informative experiences on this forum in the past and I've learned from you. But there are simply too many folks (both old and young) who swear by Nosler partitions for BG up to NA bison or kodiak brown bears.

Thanks,
