Note: If this was a beauty contest, the GMX would win for sure. Very impressed with this bullet. I was surprised that it expanded deeper in its hollow point than the TTSX since the TTSX is supposed to expand to lower velocity. I haven't shot any game animal with anything by Barnes bullets in over 10 years but I might have to try the GMX next year!

Note: Typical Partition performance. The top lead portions are just sitting on top of those bullets, they are no longer attached.

I like the looks of the Hornady GMX, even though I have lots of 260gr. Nosler partitions loaded up. I might just have to give those GMX pills a try too... Thanks for posting your results.
