Bbear. Thanks. I've heard the BT is a little softer than the hot core. Have you had good success with them on Bambi?

The Speer BTSP works great on white tails from Texas to Missouri-sized, and mulies here in Texas as well as New Mexico and Colorado, out as far as I've shot them (around 450 yards) and on Black Buck out past 500. But for Axis I didn't get complete pass through on them when shooting them in the point of the shoulder. Hence the Accubonds. Those puppies seem to go through about any deer-sized game and leave a nice exit hole to boot.
Were I to go strictly for white tail I wouldn't hesitate to go back to the Speer.

I've shot a handful of deer with acubonds and don't think I've had a single pass through. They seem to come apart I've shot them into wet phone books. They hold .

They shoot well and seem to kill even with no pass throughs. Just killed my buck this year with one inside 200yds in the vitals no pass through and dead right there.
