[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 603664, member: 9281"] Just a thought: The TSX's are great and very accurate bullets. But, if you intend on taking game farther than 700 yards at the velocity you're running, they just won't open up enough. They will punch nice, clean, small holes through animals though. I've done lots of penetration tests with the 180 TSX at 3300fps and I found beyond 700 yards they just didn't open enough. At 1,100 yards into a chunk of fir firewood the tip was not even noticeably damaged. This is when I switched to the 210VLD.:D You may not be intending on shooting that far anyway. Like I said, the TSX's are great performing bullets when impact velocity is kept up. Just my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
