I remember on another website years ago there was a fella who shot a deer with Barnes bullets that resulted in a nasty splash with very little penetration on the one side and had to shoot it again.
The one thing about it is , like John Barsness ( and many others) have stated ,There is no perfect bullet , they may work 99% of the time, it's that 1% that makes you scratch your head!

Ya it was a head shot, and it was at quite a distance as well.
I agree with what John said, and I know many other do too. The best you can hope for is the optimum scenario and hope the bullet does it's job. The Barnes bullet works well when it's traveling fast, the ballistic tip works well when it's traveling slow, but the cup and core just flat out works..... imo.
