The 30cal 168TTSX's are "softer", like the LRX's. According to Barnes they should expand properly down to 1600fps.

this was TSX not TTSX From what I've seen the TTSX do open open more/better. I figured it was cause of a lot larger hole (under tip) than the TSX softer? has there been a hardness test ?


ld,

Sorry, I misread your post. Don't know if the 30cal 168's are supposed to open easier than other TSX's. I'll shoot Barnes an e-mail and see what they say.

Regards,

David
