Yup. Put two holes in ‘em and they will be found.

IMHO, the decision should be between the 150 TTSX and 130 TTSX. Both will recoil a bit less than the 168 and the Barnes bullets dig speed. No plains game will stop either one of those with decent placement within 400 yards.

Remember, the 150 TTSX is likely to retain more weight than a 180 NPT. The 130 TTSX will easily retain more than a 165 NPT and more than likely as much or more than the 180.


What could be a sadder way to end a life than to die having never hunted with great dogs, good friends and your family?
