Are XTP bullets memes? Looking for something to load for 44mag burr defense and thinking this may work better than a gas checked hard cast lead bullet.

Fucking shit I didn't mean XTP's, I meant the the Lehigh Xtreme Penetrators. Also looking at XTP's but those are JHP's.

Of course it's a fucking gimmick. Just use a normal fucking bullet. Wide, flat noses are your friend.
>>
They are insane penetrators. Suck for self defense due to massive over penetration. But for bears or big animals they're perfect
>>
>>34445730
No, a heavy lead bullet would be perfect.
>>
I haven't used them but I have heard really good things about them
>>
>>34445777
From whom? Their advertising department?
>>
>>34445596
use for self-defense and then get back to me

they're great in .380 because they can finally pass the fbi ballistic gel tests consistently.
pretty much guaranteed over-penetration in any larger caliber

FBI gel tests are stupid. Real bodies are not like gel. Instead of trying to compensate for an inadequate cartridge with a gimmick bullet, why not get a good cartridge and some good bullets?

Over penetration is a meme, and you're both group-think sheep
>>
I mainly use mine as tiny screwdrivers in home decor.
>>
>>34445807
Videos, user reviews
It's not hard to look up results other people are getting from them you moron.
>>
>>34445854
380 fmj's overpenetrate all the fucking time, are you high?
>>
>>34445849

You're stupid.

Why don't you read about how the gel was developed and replicate before saying stupid shit?

>"it doesn't perform EXACTLY like a human body of ______ dimensions!"

It's not supposed to. It's supposed to give a general idea of the expansion and penetration of a particular round. If it goes through 35" of gel it'll probably go through that within ~2-5" if I'm shooting solid human meat with a ribcage.
