They (t/c with blue tip) would cost me $1.13 per shot with sabot. Where the Barnes (T-ez) cost me $1.48 per shot with sabot's.

I was hoping to find a cheaper compromise with the deep curl.

But I have a feeling when hunting my confidence will be with Barnes...lol

You can't go wrong with a Barnes and like mulie mentioned you can always buy a cheaper bullet of the same weight and impact point to practice with if need be!Ray
