I switch from horandy sxt to those, and I will not look back! The sxt hold a lil better grouping at 150 yards, but I had hornady exsplode on scapula and on a neck shot. The deer ran 200+ yards with lil to almost no blood trail. Also, the sxt had a harder time getting an exit wound. I tried Federals a few years back, and they are ruthless and tend to stay together.
