Barnes are great for shooting an animal in the vitals and having it run off like nothing happened. Especially in a 30 ought 6.All my saws seem happy with 40:1, I see no reason to change. It is like using a 165 gr bullet in a 30-06 while some argue for 180 gr and others argue for 150 gr. My ballistic testing showed that bullet construction is more important than wt, so I actually use a 168 gr Barnes.
Not in my experience. But everyone has a different story. Controlled expansion of an X Bullet might be a factor at long range if it didn't hit bone, but if you touch a rib with one it's a different ball of wax. Another one I like is the Swift scirocco. It's been my favorite ballistic tip for guaranteed but controlled expansion, at least in a 300 ultramag.Barnes are great for shooting an animal in the vitals and having it run off like nothing happened.

I asked my 300UM the other day about the deer's cns. He didn't think much of it. His big brother, the 338UM just laughed.bullet on flesh or ballistic gel block, night and day difference when you add clothes or hide or bone or cartilage into the mix
impact velocity &
State of CNS (central nervous system) for example of the animal is on "alert" generally the bullet will "perform" not as effectively.
also play huge roles in how well a bullet "performs".
Yea. Originally bought them for elk. Had to try it on deer tho. Gotta go for heart. You hit a rib on a quartering shot and the off side shoulder is toast.Bambi isn't exactly dangerous game....338RUM on bambi...guess you like burger instead of steak.
Sea and Snow is an injector oil.. Redbull is probaly trembling at the thought of all that solvent.Not in my experience. But everyone has a different story.

Oh and by the way. Picked up 2 gallons of fd certified citgo sea and snow at the co-op. $22/gal. Gonna be til fall before I get to it tho.
The 300um and a 165 no bt is pretty damn decisiveness crop damage deer. As in I have never had one run at all. Just don't shoot them where there is meat..Bambi isn't exactly dangerous game....338RUM on bambi...guess you like burger instead of steak.
First kill with the 338RUM was 150 yds through a small opening in the woods. Freehand. Saw the bull and waited for him to take 1 more step. He did. I shot. Bull went down.The 300um and a 165 no bt is pretty damn decisiveness crop damage deer. As in I have never had one run at all. Just don't shoot them where there is meat..
I'm OK with it being an injector/premix oil. At 32:1 I'd bet a couple paychecks it'll be just fineSea and Snow is an injector oil.. Redbull is probaly trembling at the thought of all that solvent.
I shot an elk at under 50 yards last year with a 180gr TTSX from a 300 ultra at 3400fps. The elk showed no reaction at the shot and ran 70 yards before tipping over. No blood trail till the last ten yards. On side should was broken at the elbow and off side was intact but bloodshot to hell. Exit hole was hard to find.. nickel sized.
In 13 I shot an antelope 3 times with a 25-06 ai and a 100gr tsx at 33350 fps.Reacted to each shot but wasn't going down. All shots where classic behind the shoulder shots.
I have had them wprk well too, but have also seen some really wonky stuff.
