You'll find a bunch of TSX posts in here, a lot of people have used them. I have personally loaded them in .257 Wby, .270 Win and .300 Win Mag, and have had good hunting accuracy out of all of them (sub MOA). .30-06 with 168 grs is next TSX project. - mike ********************* The rifle is a noble weapon...

I have been using them for a couple of years now. Used 160 gr TSX on Deer, also 140 gr 270 Win TSX and 180 gr TSX, and 338 210 gr TSX on African Plains game. Performace of all bullets was outstanding. Remember, forgivness is easier to get than permission. | |||

Both of my 300ulotramags average 5/8" three shot groups at 100 yards with the 180gr tsx.Fouling is almost non existant,and I am getting slightly more velocity with a smaller powder charge compared to other bullets. | |||

I have loaded TSX's for two rifles - a .270 Win and a .300 Win Mag. In both cases, they have turned out to be the most accurate bullets of any I have tried. | |||

Yes, 140gr in 7/08, Varget to get 2900 fps. Awsome accuracy and terminal performance (TP). Been using barnes for years. Always had great TP but accuracy was often only so so, and fauling a problem. The TSX solved the accuracy and fauling with the same great TP> | |||

Excellent results (accuracy and terminal performance) in .257 AI, .270 WSM, and .338 Win Mag. Will be using them in my 6.5x55 as soon as it's repaired. It did real well with XLCs, so I presume it'll like TSXs as well (everything has so far). _____________________ A successful man is one who earns more money than his wife can spend. | |||

The TSX's shoot superbly in 16 of the 17 guns I reload for. In the other one they shoot better than any other bullet, just not very good. I figure it's the gun's fault there. I like penetration and a blood trail to follow rather than explosive type bullets, so the TSX's work for me there also. ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||

I have had excellent accuracy with the following TSX bullets. Also great terminal performance. All 3 animals I have shot with TSX bullets died on the spot. .270 Win / 130 grn TSX / 1 coyote 7x57 / 140 gran TSX / 1 wild boar 300 WinMag / 150 TSX / 1 pronghorn antelope Tim | |||

25-284 with 100 grain TSX did a fine job on 4 Texas hogs last winter. Just under 1" accuracy with the first load I used. When I bed the rifle and tweak the load some it may get a bit better. The performance of the bullets was very good & produced from 1" to 1.5" exits. Try the "unleaded" for yourself, I think you'll like the results. Bruce | |||
