The HPBT is actually tougher than the Gameking in my experience.

If I were traveling a long ways to shoot elk I'd go with something different I suppose. My '06 likes the 165's also but shoot's 180's well enough that I have no issue using them. I've never tried a Texas Heart Shot but then again I'm not from Texas.

What you shoot them with has much less to due with killing than where you hit them.
