Default RE: Barnes X-bullet

My camp has used X-bullets exclusively for the past 7 years. I'd say we've taken at least 25 deer in that time. Two of them went about 25 yards and the rest dropped in their tracks. They expand perfectly - they're hollow points with four petals pre-cut in the metal. I'm surprised to hear people saying they wouldn't drop a deer flat. I've heard that they can group poorly in some rifles and they foul barrels, but never anything bad about terminal performance.
