Default RE: barnes expanders

Any experience with them good or bad? I shoot a T/C omega with 100 grains 777. This past year I hunted with powerbelts and didn't like them. I shot both a deer and bear with awful results. Both times the powerbelts "exploded" when hitting a rib, and no exit hole. Any other bullet choices also welcome.
=============================================

Copper Powerbelts do not explode..... still cheaper & load easier than the Expanders in most Omega bores. A less grunting Barnes for the tighter Omega bores would be the Barnes Spitfires.
