That's interesting, as I was just talking to my dad about the last deer I shot with a 7mm SAUM and the 150gr TTSX. It was broadside at 160 yards and the deer reacted minimally, making a run off my shooting lane. When I walked down there after dark, there was lung splatter on the tree 7-8' behind where the deer had been standing. Even with a 50yd death run, there was a better than average blood trail. I was honestly expecting a bit less from a rib shot with a 7mm mono bullet and was pleasantly surprised. I've used the 120TTSX in the 7mm-08 at similar speeds and it's typically adequate regarding blood trails, but not generally quite as good as a cup/core. It does penetrate well though, so there's pros and cons.


Now with even more aplomb
