[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 436290, member: 2736"] There are a lot of different experances with the TXS, some good and some bad. My experances were mixed. (Some good and some bad) also. But out of this I realized that what they needed was velocity (Lots of velocity).So when I pushed them hard (3000+impact velocity) They worked reasonable well on thick skinned game. But on thin skinned game like deer, again I had mixed results. I have found that bonded core Bullets work better over a wide range of velocities and do not need high velocities to perform consistently well. The barns x and triple shock work well on dangerous game in weights of 350+grains and in big bores. So they do have a place in my inventory of bullets, Just not in the smaller (338 and down) cal. Again, I think all bullets will give less than desired results if not used for there design purpose and velocity. Some bullets are just more forgiving than others. And the bonded core design of bullets seem to be the most consistant. I have said it many times. 'There is no golden bullet that will do everything' So you must find a bullet designed for the intended use to get the best results. Just my opinion. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
