[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1755034, member: 75451"] Yes, factory Barnes. Not terribly expensive as compared to one tank of fuel used when hunting! I started with the old, original X Bullet. I had excellent performance, my first kill was an elk. The shot was lengthwise, end to end, with the recovered bullet losing one petal. Though, accuracy wasn’t great ....1 3/4” or so at 100 yards. I stayed with Barnes as they continually improved their technology. We took the same path with my wife’s rifle, though we got to the TTSX’s much earlier....as Barnes did not offer a bullet weight in TTSX that I wanted to use in my rifle! The “only” animals requiring a second shot (very few), were due to poor placement with the first. To date,we’ve only recovered two bullets.....with two moose, one bear, numerous elk, and many deer/antelope used as test subjects! memtb [/QUOTE]
