[QUOTE="mmacfive, post: 2883307, member: 93205"] I’m not sure why you have had several people tell you to avoid the shoulder with the 120 TTSX. Speaking from experience they will shatter the shoulder coming or going. Femurs too. A 120 TTSX will weight about 120 grains after breaking the shoulder. A 160 Nosler Partion, which is one of the best penetrating and bone smashing bullets available, will typically weigh around 100 grains after breaking the shoulder. It’s the post expansion sectional density that determines penetration. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
