This was recovered at a claimed 2300 fps. doesn't look good enough to me.

I'm not sure how much it matters, because I don't shoot Barnes, but that 130 is named a TSX in the article. I hear that the TTSX do open more readily and with a far lower failure rate. And I wouldn't trust Barnes' BC numbers. That bullet looks like it hit at more like 2K fps. I guess if the drops were right...
