[QUOTE="Bbear, post: 1124301, member: 7898"] Have had some of the most accurate rounds I've ever loaded in my 25-06 and 7mm-08 with the TTSX's. I've had a few bang/flops when I hit the shoulder or a major bone. With the 7mm, I've had 3 that just penciled through the ribs though. Though I did find the deer, blood trails were poor and all three made over 100 yards before dropping. With the 25's in 100 gr, Using RL 22, I shot bug-hole groups and had the same problem. In fact, the Barnes were the only bullet I've ever hit a deer well and lost. I know lots of folks love the bullet but for me, it seems to require hitting a major bone to put them down quickly. Just my experiences with them. [/QUOTE]
