So the 120 gr Ballistic Tip blew up, eh? Well, I've shot a couple hundred deer with the 130 grain in my 270 and quite a few pigs and more than a few deer, coyotes, and hogs with my 260 and I have not had even one failure that I could blame on the bullet. One thing that does have to be considered is that quartering shots might not exit a deer, so in that case you may not have much of a blood trail. I have also learned that 22 caliber Ballistic Tips for varmints are best used on small critters and not on deer and hogs.
