Sounds like ill need to go down to 110 or 130 and crank it along a bit. Running a 1 in 7 twist so will spin up a storm inside an animal.
Again thanks heaps for the feedback guys

sounds to me like pretty much any cup n core jobbie would do what you asking....hornady interlock etc etc....personally I believe too many folks have gone too far down the rabbit hole of search for perfect projectile.... I love the ttsx in the .223 and the 110grn tsx kill well in poohseventy....but no better or worse than a 130-140grn cup n core at ranges you are talking...
my .308 gets fed soft 180grn round nose for bush work and speer 150 hhot core for deer out further...125grn tnt for wallabies.... cant see myself buying anything else at the rate of shots fired for animals encountered it will take me years to work through box of 180s and box of 150s.
