Amen to the statement about ballistic tip. I believe the internet has ruined the Ballistic tip. If you believe what you read on the internet, the BT won't kill a deer unless it pass's the ribs perfectly or it will fragment. Which is of course bull. And some of these statements are still going around. They will pancake out more than a partition, but an ideal deer bullet. As oldelk said, interbonds might be the perfect replacement.
