I was on the fence about the idea of petals sheering off...seems like they got them pretty dialed in though.


I'll probably start with TAC as I have 2 kegs of it.
Yeah, people criticize Barnes bullets losing a petal, whereas Hammer and CEB monos are designed to shed petals.

I have maybe a half dozen recovered Barnes bullets without petals from cape buffalo (350's via 416 Rem), two kudu (250's via 9.3x62 with one shot), bushbuck (250's via 9.3x62 azz shot), elk (185's via 338-06), moose (225 via 35 Whelen). Short of the buffalo that took two steps the rest dropped at the shot. No criticism here.

Conduct is the best proof of character.
