Rob, I re-reading my post, I think I may have give the wrong impression. I use 85 gr Nosler Ballsitic tips for varmints. I DO NOT use ballistic tips for big game. I use Barnes TSX bullets now. I use to use Barnes XLC bullets, with acceptable hunting accuracy. But the new TSX bullets have just plain exceptional accuracy, with very good bullet expansion, weight retention, and penetration.

Rob, I am EXTREMELY happy with the accuracy, and performance of the 100 gr Barnes TSX bullet, in my .25-06 Rem. chambered Tikka. For long range varmints, I use 85 gr Nosler Ballistic tips, but for big game(northern whitetails), it is almost too much bullet, when one sees the damage under the hide. I will be going west in a couple of years, for antelope, and elk. For antelope, the .25-06 firing 100 gr TSX bullets, will be the primary gun, and for elk, it will be my back up to my 300 WSM. How is that for confidence in a bullet's performance. Squeeze | |||

Try the Winchester 120gr Precision Point. They perform well and have shot well in various rifles that I have sighted in. | |||
