Has anyone here used the Maker T-Rex to take big game? I'm wondering how it performers compared to other mono bullets? It looks like a good design. Wondering if it opens easier and wider than some?

I have not shot a deer with one yet but they shoot fantastic out of my 25-06... I would expect them to open up very well and continue on through... with the deeper cuts and the tip to accelerate expansion...

I've used his 150g 350 Legend bullet on a few deer. They died and the bullet passed through.

Need to shoot some milk jugs later this winter when I get bored.

I order some 200gr rex bullets for the 35 remington, 120gr t rex for the 7mm-08, 130gr t rex for 300 savage and 168gr t rex for the 300 WSM. Hopefully I'll find some good loads and be able to test on game in the future.

I shot a black bear out West with a T-Rex 130gr in my .260 Montana last year. Exit was about a half dollar. I was impressed.
