No need for 150gr Barnes in nz.
I've been using the 130s for a number of years now and am still yet to recover one, that includes full body length penetration of wap cross stags.
Because they don't blow to bits they out penetrate far heavyr conventional bullets.
The only one i have seen recovered a friend lined up two hinds(not intentionally) in on the crease of both first dropped on the spot second went 15 odd yards and we found it just under the skin on the off side shoulder.
