[QUOTE="StumpyJohnson, post: 2624403, member: 122458"] Following this thread for future reading. I've shot hammers, Lehigh's, makers, cutting edge, tsx, ttsx, lrx, gmx, and lastly CX. Oh and nosler e-tip. In my experience through 5 calibers 4 rifles and all the monos above there hasn't been one bullet that is consistently accurate for me. Meaning they're the same as lead, some rifles just don't like some bullets. Solid bullets seem to take that a step farther as far as finicky-ness. The tsx and now the CX have been top performers accuracy wise. Then Lehigh and hammer. Then the rest in a pile... Really liking the 139 and 150 CX lately in my 28 nosler. I have no opinion about terminal performance, I do have a far amount of empirical data and expensive lessons learned. All I can say is get yourself some freebore and a quick twist rate. The bullets get long, they like jumping to the lands, and spinning extra fast. Wish me luck I got California's G1 this year... P. S. Building a lead based target rifle to step away from mono madness for a while. [/QUOTE]
