[QUOTE="willyqbc, post: 1516964, member: 17279"] Ive shot the LRX quite a bit...lowest impact velocity was approx 1800 fps. That was with a 200 lrx out of an '06 at 468 yds. Hit the heavy bone at the bottom of the shoulder blade...sheared both leg bones completely off in the same spot...nothing but pudding in between. Have not shot the 127 lrx yet, but have shot dozens of animals with the 129 lrx....moose, elk, muleys, bears...very reliable predictable performance. I have always used a combination of 100-200 fps over manufacturers claims, coupled with minimum 1000 ft lbs to determine my max range, and have never seen any evidence of the dreaded "penciled through". Of the 150 or so elk, moose, deer, bear, african game, NZ game etc my hunting pals and i have taken with tsx, ttsx, lrx....i can only recall recovering 3 or 4 bullets....you'll almost always get the 2 holes your lookin for...no matter what bone is encountered.
