I killed an awful lot of deer and pigs with that Gen 1 Nosler BT. Never a problem. Shot a boar hog that the rancher said (later) weighed almost 400 pounds. The Gen 1 BT went through to the shield on the off side. The hog was at about 50 yards, and the 270’S MV of the 130 gr bullet was aprox 3000 fps. I even sent that Gen 1 BT through two pigs when they were side by side, on several occasions. My point being that I never knew they were too fragile. Worked fine for me. Just don’t try to hit shoulder bones and avoid quartering shots if you can.
