[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 639012, member: 34818"] Before I say anything about Barnes bullets, let me say that no animal that I have ever shot with them has gone more than 30 yards before expiring. BUT, every animal that I have shot with them, the bullet was pencil hole in and penny sized exit hole. I personally would like a larger exit hole. I shot an oryx with the 140 gr ttsx out of a 7 RUM. It ran 30 yards and fell over dead but the bullet had very little expansion even at 338 yds. I have shot numerous mule deer with the 100 gr tsx out of a 25-06 as far out as 400 yds. Every deer was DRT but again..very little expansion. With that little of expansion, shot placement is super critical. Am I saying that they are bad bullets? No..most definitely a well made and accurate bullet but just letting you know that they don't expand much at all. [/QUOTE]
