Run a 210 ttsx in my 338-06. Kills moose just fine, though it did catch the hide after breaking the neck and shoulder at a bit over 100 yards. But I consider for such a light round, that to be good performance. And retained weight I"ll let you guess on.. lets just say the blue tip must not weigh much... LOL


Definitely a Barnes fan but I do use a variety of bullets in various weights and diameters including Nosler Accubond and BT, Barnes TTSX and what few MRX I have left, North Fork SS and FP and Swift Scirocco II and A-Frame.

The BT only see use in hunting loads in my Blackout (125g @ ~1900fps) and Ruger Scout with its 16.1" barrel (150g @ 2699fps) and neither has taken any game yet.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
