I've used the 6mm 85 gr X bullet doe hunting whitetails out of a 6mm Remington. Worked fine. Low recoil, accurate, fine terminal ballistics, dead does. What more can I say? - Dan

I have a good friend from New South Wales who shoots the 53 gr Barnes X-bullet out of a 22.250 and 31.5gr AR2206. He kills hundreds of pigs a year hunting in Queensland. He also uses the same load on larger game and reports that almost all are one-shot kills. His name is Les Pinczi. Les owns a company called Pinsoft which publishes ballistic software program called "Shoot". You can check out his software for free and e-mail him with any questions about shooting in the "outback". He can be reached at www.pinsoft.com.au
