The MRX, TTSX and LRX have all worked very well for us, antelope to elk. Can't think of a reason to forgo the tip, which helps ensure expansion and improves B.C. for an untipped TSX.

We have yet to recover a tipped Barnes mono bullet and no animal has gone more than a few yards, with many (half or so) going straight down.

Daughter uses 120g TTSX in her .308 Win. A 140 is one of my 7mm RM loads.

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.
