i have some of those barnes 32's but haven't tried them yet. i was wondering about the performance of the berger 35's. you get a lot of exit wounds with them? if you don't mind me asking, thanks

Scott ,
The Bergers for me are very fur friendly, very seldom an exit wound. The last one I shot was at 50 yards and no exit wound,was it a fluke ,I don't know. I do know that you don't have to chase them using the Bergers

thanks for the info, there's no pd's up here in Alaska. lot of rabbits, beaver, fox, lynx, wolves, and wolverines tho. i think the berger can hold together with the bigger animals up here without splashing. there's just one way to find out.

I don't think you'll have any problem with the animals you listed.
