Wow, most of the time I agree w/most of these guys but I'm kinda shocked on this one. So much talk about how the XTPs don't perform is interesting. I've been shooting them in MLs since the early-mid 90's. I've yet to lose a deer w/them and I think the farthest I had to track one (which really wasn't a track) was about 30yrds. I'd say (guessing of course because I don't have exact numbers) 90% of them were pass throughs. I've shot through shoulders, lungs, neck and a couple chest shots (I do remember one of those not passing through because it was lodged between meat and hide on the hind quarter (still in its jacket))Last year I hit a limb about the size of a sharpie, cut it in two, and still got a pass through.

Hence why I'm a little confused why people are having issues w/them. Over the years I've shot from 80-110 grains all having the same performance. Not saying that the GD isn't a great bullet because it is. 'Dance w/the one that brung ya' I guess...
