    I had no issue when shooting beyond 200m with the 150sst it killed well, I mainly used the 130ttsx for point blank shooting then swap to the 150 sst for long range shots.

    There are an article in one of the hunting comics where they simulated shooting through thick bush by shooting different projectiles through bunches of dowles. SST was one of the worse performing and TTSX was one of the best.

    That'd be interesting to read if you could find it.

    I think I might have read one of them in the Durvil hut.....MEH

    Basically if your projectile glances a branch very close to you and some distance from the target your stuffed, its simple physics and angle of deflection,if the obstruction is very close to the target any deflection will be minimal and it is down to projectile construction/impact velocity what happens next.
