Exactly why I also choose the 165's

I have also never seen any failure to perform, always with flawless perfection of the TSX

They gave me a pile of the TTSX to try out too, but I never saw that the TTSX was an improvement over the TSX. Maybe just my luck so far? The difference may be in some longer range BC advantage? My longest shots are well under 500 yards so I did not test extensivley for this. My TSX bullets group right at 6" at 500 yards from a solid bench rest. Nothing to brag about but it's just a basic hunting rifle too. I did not see the groups change with the TTSX bullets, they group in the same clump of holes with both styles. I would guess the BC advantage will come somewhere beyond 600 yards, if that's the need of the shooter?

I'm a simple sort too, less is better for me. Just a simple solid chunk of copper without anything fancy like a plastic tip is just fine in my book!
