COPPER SUCKS! Head, neck, high shoulder & quartering shots only.
Call Barnes tech on reloading and they will give you the real scoop on the loads. I found 1-2 grains over there published max is where you get the pedals to break off and expand the wound channel otherwise pin hole in and pin hole out. I miss lead every time I kill big game out of state.

The accuracy is great, you do need different bore cleaners. And lighter bullet weights seem to be the way to go faster equals more expansion.

Pm me if you have any questions.
