Thanks everyone. I'm headed back to the range now to re-verify. What ever bullet shoots best today will be what I take. A cool thing with this Tikka is how the POI hasn't changed and I have used 4 different bulets. I guess I could literally run the TTSX for up close/still hunting and use the Partitions if a longer shot presented itself.
I used a 250 Accubond a few years back (9.3X62) and it really made a mess of one shoulder; the elk dropped like a sack too! I kind of switched to TTSX after that. Last year I took a young cow at about 50 yds with a 130 TTSX out of a 308. Velocity is just over 3000. It did great and I did find a broken off petal in a shoulder roast I cooked, but the shoulder wasn't ruined.
