I just came back from a lion hunt in Zim.
Most PHs prefer A frames or Trophy bonded.
I have used TSX exclusively since the early 2000s. My 300 gr .375 H&H TSX didn't open up as much as my PH or I liked on my eland or buffalo. He said he's found the newer ones to be harder than the older ones. They acted more "solid" than "soft." I agree with him and consider them failures. He was so concerned about them not opening up on my lion, that we used my 300 Win instead.
Even though my buffalo, eland, zebras and giraffes all dropped, I will no longer use TSX in Africa in large bores. The 180 gr .300 Win @ 3040 fps did open up properly though.
