I shot an antelope buck with the 140 grain TSX (MV 3200 fps) using my 7mm Mag this year. The shot was at 284 yards with the antelope quartering away from me. The bullet hit the last rib on the right side and exited the base of the throat. The entrance wound was clean, half of the right lung was destroyed and the bullet exited leaving a 3/4"-1" exit wound. The 'lope folded up and died without taking a step.

I am a big proponent of X bullets, but they are too hard IMHO for deer.




Hope not as I am using the 130's in my 6,5 Swede with approx 2725fps velocity on whitetails this year. We shall see I guess.

I shot 4 antelope this September with a 140 grs TSX loaded to an MV of 3050 in a .270 Win. Shots were from 100 to 400 yds, all bullets worked well. Could not have asked for more.

After reading some of the reports about the Accubonds I am quickly working up a Triple Shock load for deer season.

I would like to hear some reports on the Triple Shocks, especially the bad ones!


The Accubonds are very accurate in my rifle, the TSX are still accurate just not as accurate as the Nosler.


Thanks!

See my post over on the reloading forums. Anybody experience the fact that Barnes tends to constantly update their bullets making it hard to stay with the same load? they just changed the ogive on the 30 cal 180gr by 002". haven't shot them yet, but I sure as hell hope it didn't change my POI! jorge
