As for BT's, some like um, some dont. Horror stories were the norm a few years back but today i think its developement has increased its popularity. I have shot then from other rifles without any issues and these have all been shots inside 100 yrds. which was one of the horror stories that theycrumble at high velocity, at short range upon impact. My friend will use nothing but BT's for hogs/deer and he has yet to lose any of them. Then again my other hunting buddy says he would never look at them twice LOL...
