Has anyone seen these yet? They look pretty intriguing. Right now, its only available in a 180gr .45. I imagine there's probably not much, in the way of ballistic information, available right now. It does look pretty neat though...

I'd been hoping for awhile that Barnes would start making "X-Bullets" for auto pistols. They're expensive, but I'd like to give them a try. The only problem I see is getting higher sectional densities with copper bullets. I see this 45 load is a fairly low SD bullet. I'm not sure if they'll be able to come up with 200-230 45cal bullets and 165-180 10mm bullets, but that might be a very good bullet indeed, if possible with copper (without being too long).
