[QUOTE="Gord0, post: 1283968, member: 99696"] I have used a 168gr Barnes ttsx out of my 300wm on 4 whitetail ranging in size from 130# dressed to 200# dressed. Ranges were from 50 to 250yds. Entry has always been caliber size and exits around 1-2" Inside was utter devastation. I couldn't find much of the heart of the deer I shot this year. One rib broken on entry, first 3" of sternum shattered, 3 ribs on exit broken and hanging outside of the deer, along with a softball sized piece of left lung. He still went 50yds... But tracking was simple. Shot was at 80yds while walking out to my stand. I have never recovered a Barnes, they have always been through and through. Minimal meat loss if I do my part. [/QUOTE]
