Try the 240 Woodleigh's they are buffalo approved. They expand so violently that they don't penetrate as much as the old Barnes but the BC is so high it is not an issue unless your using them on really big game. The Barnes original had an almost un-tapered jacket and sometimes were too tough. The thick jacketed version benefited from hollow pointing them for lighter game.
