[QUOTE="Youngpatriot, post: 2472138, member: 121910"] My dad shoots 338 Win mag, 210 gr TTSX, my brother shoots 338 RUM 225 TTSX and I have a 300 RUM 180 TSX. My dad's shoots 2880 FPS, brothers 2900 FPS, and I am 3300FPS. Speaking Elk here. Dad's, one shot drops, with devastating hydro shock. 100-350 yards. Brother, 60-350 yard shots hit his last bull at 350, dropped it, great results. First bull was at 60 yards, hit it 4 times, guide hit it with 3 shots before it dropped out of 300RUM Bergers. Looked like Swiss cheese, but brothers never opened up until he took out shoulders. My elk at 774 (Nosler partitions) didn't open up. 621 yard shot (Barnes TSX, dropped it, devasting results. Last bull was 37 yards and Demo'd it (TSX) Wife's 270WSM TTSX, 200 yard shot, 4 shots on buck this year, not one opened up. I'm not a physics person, or engineer, but I'm nervous about shooting another whitetail through the lungs with fast rounds and Barnes. Shoulder shots from here on out, or through the chest if it's facing me. [/QUOTE]
