prexactly. There's a reason for the adage"Use Enough Gun"....



A 225 grain TSX would penetrate enough in my experience.

The 270 TSX got a real foot hold and has an almost cult following, probably because it works.

The newer 250 TTSX has a better B.C., can be pushed a bit faster, shoots flatter, but you don't see much written about it. It looks like a pretty good bullet for a "stepchild".
