[QUOTE="Seabeeken, post: 2067159, member: 68015"] I’ve taken countless white tails with Barnes TTSX and tsx bullets in 250ai, 257ai, 7x57 ai, 280 ai, 338 rcm, and 9.3x62 and never a failure. I used 120 gr in 7mm, 80 gr TTSX, 100 tsx, in 25 cal, and 185 tsx in 338. Never lost an animal, 100% performance and expansion, and never recovered a bullet. Lungs always look like a blender blade was shot thru them. I did however stop using tipped tsx because I was seeing the plastic tip wobble when rolled on a tabletop so I went to tsx exclusively and I have noticed better more consistent accuracy. I also had a few tips break on feeding. I emailed Barnes about this and never got a reply so no more tipped Barnes for me. Barnes tsx Are the only bullets I use on game, period. IF I were to use a different bullet it would be a nosler accubond or partition on heavier game. Just my .02 [/QUOTE]
