The 160 TTSX at 3K is interesting and about as accurate as any I've tried. It should whack'em pretty good.

It works great!
The 160 TTSX at 3K and the 210 NPT at 2,750 or so would be the best two loads, so far in this 338-06.
I'm curious how they'd compare on elk or WT's or most anything else. Any terminal performance observations would be appreciated.

I’ve shot a decent variety with the .338 160 TTSX. 1 bull Elk, kudu, waterbuck, Impala, blesbok, and a Gemsbok. Never had to track anything. Massive internal damage, excellent penetration. Nothing over 200 yds so I can’t speak to performance once it slows down. All were heart/lung shots, no CNS, and nothing went longer than 4-6 seconds.
The bull elk was short range to the chest. Looked like a small grenade went off where he was hit, he ran maybe 30 yds and was down.
After playing with different bullets each season I’ve decided to just use the 160 as my go-to in my .338.
