[QUOTE="PddPdd, post: 1803249, member: 111799"] I and a good friend use Federal TBTs and now TLRs since they came out. These bullets have been very reliable in their performance on elk usually penetrating completely but occasionally ending up on the far side hide of the animal, indicating full expenditure of energy in the animal. The bullets we were able to recover have been fully mushroomed in all cases. No animal has traveled more than 50 yards from POI. My friend is currently shooting a Sako in 300 WSM loaded with the 200 grain TLR just under 3000 fps. BTW, no shots over 400 yards yet. We have tried Accubonds and ELRs which have put the animal down but for some calibers appear to break apart more after entering the animal and don't necessarily achieve full penetration in our experience. We prefer full mushrooming without severe bullet weight loss during penetration. The idea being to preserve more usable meat. [/QUOTE]
