[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 546533, member: 10"] ICANHITHIMMAN, I do not think there will be any problems at all with the TTSX holding together, at least enough to get the job done. WHen testing in my 338 Allen Magnum with the 265 gr TTSX, I found some fired bullets at 600, 1000 and 1520 yards. At 600 yards, I found three bullets, one of them lost all the petals but still had a 40 caliber frontal mushroom and over half of its length. At 1000 yards, they expanded FULLY and did not loose any petals. At 1520 yards the bullets all expanded fully but were about 2/3 in length. The Barnes bullets thrive on velocity, I do not think we will have a problem with them with the Raptor because again, the faster the better, especially concerning long range expansion. [/QUOTE]
