    Barnes TSX/TTSX vs Nosler Partition

    I tend to agree, though haven't used any Nosler or Hornady all-copper bullets yet. I did attempt to use the older, non-banded Barnes including the old blue XLC and was not successful in getting them to shoot. The Barnes TSX/TTSX seems to have solved that problem as some of the better / hotter...

    Barnes TSX/TTSX vs Nosler Partition

    Just returned from Africa where I used the Barnes 300 TSX Vor-Tx @ 2650 (clocked) factory on everything from a 20 lb steenbok, thru cape buffalo and a 3000 lb giraffe. Here's the ones I recovered .... For what its worth, my impression was that the 260 Partitions (last trip) killed the...

    Barnes TSX/TTSX vs Nosler Partition

    I remember when those bullets came out in the 70's, lots of guys were extolling their virtues on big game, so I decided to try them on varmints first. The first jackrabbit I shot with a SMK looked like he died from fright, couldn't find a hole. Then there it was, a small droplet of blood on the...

    I need help. Question on Scope rings.

    I was shooting a breaked .375. H&H. Since your rifle is a heavier model, little is to be gained by choosing lighter mounts. Another thing I've noticed, we have a tendency to spend lots of dough on the rifle itself, then try to save money on the scopes and mounts. If the crosshairs are not...

    I need help. Question on Scope rings.

    Funny you should ask... I'm moving all my rifles that absolutely must stay zeroed over the Nightforce one piece steel Picatinny bases, especially the heavy kickers, since I had some other bases come loose in the Kalahari last month. Cost me a warthog, but at least it was "only" a warthog. Darn...

    Hunting in Africa.

    I just returned from a hunting trip in the Republic of South Africa (RSA) and saw what you are referring to. First off, there is no public hunting land in RSA and in many of the other, more primitive countries hunting has been severely restricted or closed. Botswana closes to all sport hunting...

    Barnes TSX/TTSX vs Nosler Partition

    I have been shooting Nosler partitions for forty years now, in a variety of calibers ranging from 223 through the 458 lott. I just returned from Safari where the 260 gr partition in my 375 collected 12 animals that ranges from 10 yards to 300. Jackal, through springbok, to eland. I only managed...
