[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 1859035, member: 109476"] THough I have taken several elk with Barnes 120 gr bullets & the 260 I just wanted to pass on about an elk my friend took with his 260. He was shooting the Barnes 130gr TSX at about 2800 fps. A rag horn 4x4 bull at about 185 yds facing at an angle away from us. The bullet entered on the right side back by the last rib, It traveled forward thru a portion of the gut thru the rib cage & lodged about 12" to 14"up into the neck. Keep in mind that 2800 fps is no speed demon but 6.5's have shown over & over again their ability to maintain velocity. Just thought this might be of interest to you. [/QUOTE]
