I agree with your comments, John. I use Monos outta my 25-06 when I may encounter game bigger than deer. Also have used them in 30 cal magnums. I have had good luck with the 30 cals, but the 100gr TSX outta the 25-06 has a mixed track record. They either work very well, or the animals run off much farther than I would like. I havent w=switched over to the TTSX version in 25 cal yet, because I bought a stash of them, that I haven't burnt up yet. Maybe the 100gr TTSX is a better bullet?
