Not personally, but a friend told me that when the FTX are stacked in his 1894 mag for more than an hour in the cold (like in real life in the North woods during deer season), the tips do not 'bounce back' from being deformed by the pressure of the mag spring...

According to him, you effectively get a pointed first shot (in the chamber), and then have all flat points...They do 'bounce back' once they warm up inside...

To my knowledge, he never shot a deer with them, so I can not speak to terminal performance...

As I said...This was info from a 'friend'...Take it for what it is worth...
