I've been using the " bulk handgun HP bullets" for some time now. I like them for target, plinking , etc.....A couple years ago I ran out of my hunting load ( 240 XTP HP ) , since I had plenty of the Nosler bulk Hps , I loaded them with my hunting load. ( W 296 ). I lost a very nice buck , first and last deer I've lost to a handgun. I have no proof it was a bullet failure, maybe it was a bad shot on my account.......all I know is , I'm back to using my XTPs over the W-296. Last year the bisley got its first blood with that load. Good luck
