I think you guys miss what i'm talking about. The Barnes doesn't flatten out like the DC. It's petals are exposed more. They are razor sharp. With the bullet spinning they cut going through the flesh. The rear of the bullet stays intact to penetrate all the way through.
So, you have spinning razor blades that drive through the animal to destroy flesh and exit leaving a huge blood trail.
A bullet that squashes down into a blob can't do that kind of damage.
An added benefit is no lead in an animal i'm going to eat.
A little extra cost is well worth it.
