350gr xtp performance or lack of?

I shot this boar quartering towards me at 10yds with the 350gr xtp at 1250fps. It rolled the boar over on his back and died. The skinner found the bullet just in front of the stomach next to ribs. I was surprised it didn't exit or mushrooms more. Is this bullet failure? What are you're guys opinion?
