Curious about 270 TSX on deer-class game. - 04/24/10
There are many testimonials here and on the web concerning the Barnes .375" 270 grain TSX on big and dangerous game in Africa and North America.
I am curious about the performance of this exact bullet on smaller thin-skinned game such as the North American deer and antelope. I am thinking about switching to this bullet for all-around use in North America.
Specifically, does it open up when bones are not hit on entrance? Does it open reliably? To me, 'reliably' means most of the time. What does the wound channel look like? What was estimated impact velocity?
If you have personally observed this exact bullet in action, I would like to read about your experience.
