Thread: Barnes ttsx jump anyone got any experience ?

Have'nt used Ttsx on any of the local deer - yet.

I've been using 110gr TTSX in my 308W going around 3200fps - 2mm of off the lands.

I've shot Kudu(470m hart/lung area), Oryx, Bluewildebeest, warthog, Blesbuck and Springbuck, Impala, Zebra.

On many of the animals I were able to recover the bullet - perfectly mushroomed. Weight retention was in the high 90%.

On one of the Springbuck I experienced some issues(head shot at +/_302m). The buck was standing broughtside and I overestimated the wind - hitting it just forward under its eye. The bullet passed right through - it did expand though.
Instandly blinding it.

It did not go down, but as soon as it presented another shot I shot it through the hart. (Would not recommend TTSX for head shots)

Meat damage was always low comparred to conventional bullets.

I dont like lead in the meat Im intending to eat, so Ill keep on using TTSX bullets.
