| 2.2# = 1 kg
25 kg should approximate 56 lbs.
The TSX should easily handle that range and larger with a well placed shot. |

| I use the 45gr XLC on coyotes in my Hornet. It's the best bullet I've found for them at Hornet velocities. I have used it in my 222mag, also on coyotes. Based on my experiences, I would not hesitate to shoot something larger with the XLC out of my 222mag.
You should be fine. |

| I've used the TSX 53 grain out of a 22-250 on smaller mule deer bucks with devastating results out to 345 yards. That was moving at higher velocities in the 22-250 than you would get it to in the 223 but for the size of game the TSX would work fine. |

| What Twist weight are you using the Barnes TSX 53 gr in? I have a 1:14 in my 22-250 and would like to use this bullet.

| I'm shooting my 22-250 TSX out of a Remington VSSF which has the same 1:14" twist rate, I think?, and the accruacy is great |
