[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 1003101, member: 52437"] thanks guys. The loading for my 3006 is not yet complete though. I am only getting 2600-2700FPS which is quite slow for the TTSX and proper expansion. Id say 300 yards max for proper expansion. The good news is that is MY personal absolute max on deer right now anyways and I now have my savage that is looking very promising for longer range shots. The key here though is that my confidence is now restored with this rifle. I thought maybe I had a bad rifle but knowing it shoots the TTSX in 168gr well, I can either try a different powder next season with this bullet to get faster speeds while maintaining accuracy or look for another bullet to be able to try and stretch the legs on my 3006 to 400+ yards. I have only tried the TTSX and 150 grain accubonds... the 150 grain accubonds shot terribly which could simply be it is to light/short of a bullet for my barrel twist. [/QUOTE]
