Has anyone tried these out? Information needed on accuracy and how effective on game as well as copper fouling the barrel. | ||

I have used them in a 270WBY for the past couple of years. The majority of the deer I have shot have been in the 300-400 yard range so should have comparable impact velocities. All but one have been complete penetration giving 8" to 25" and a nice silver dollar exit. The one that didn't make it out was at 330 yards and hit the big leg bone up in the shoulder shattering the bone and leaving a baseball sized void in the shoulder, reaching, and stopping in one lung. A second shot was required. Fouling in my rifle is minimal and accuracy is exceptional, and was easily achieved. | |||

Thanks for your reply. What is the vel. of the load you use? I know that Federal Premium loads the 110gr TTSX at 3400 fps. Right now I've been using the 130gr. TSX at 3060 fps. | |||

I am gatting a shade over 3800, but I would expect you shouldn't have much trouble getting 3400 even with a 22 inch barrel if you load. | |||
