[QUOTE="Trm82, post: 1128903, member: 77953"] I still use Ttsx in a 7-08 and 338 but I gave up using LRX. I shot them in a 270wsm and they were they most accurate bullet I have ever shot . While on a whitetail last year in northern Alberta at -25 to-30 Celsius I have a chance at a pack of wolve and a tip broke off the LRX and ended up on the bolt face and I could not close the bolt. Took a few minutes to find the problem. Ok , so once was a fluke I thought but the next day had a coyote on the trail and the same thing happened but the bolt closed. I didn't take the shot and when I emptied the round from the chamber the tip broke off that one also. I would of been ****ed the first time if the wolves would of been a 160-190" Whitetail. So for that reason I no longer will use the LRX in cold weather. [/QUOTE]
