Well, keeping them up ensures good saturation of the all-time best cover scent... cigarette smoke.

wonder how the 100 grain TTSX would dig through an elk launched @ 3100 out of the 260?

Would work fine, no doubt.

I'd still be inclined to a 120-130 were I using something like a TTSX...

If I were walking out the door tomorrow to hunt elk with a 260 I'd be running a 130 AB over H4350!
