I have used them on a grizzly and black bear myself (225's in a 338-06), the 140 gr on a scimitar oryx via 7x57 and my youngest son, age 14 at the time, 160's via 7x57 on the full range of African plains game and all was fine. That said, I have dumped them and will continue with the Barnes TSX. The TSX's shoot very well rather easily, generally first load put together and I am done, and they just work, at times in chitty situations that I have not offered the AB. So, for me, the TSX is what I have settled on.
