.35 Whelen is my go to elk caliber, have a 1988 Rem 700 Classic that thumps critters inside 350 yards with 250gr Nosler Partitions. Have wanted to try Barnes TTSX, but the 200gr max weight gives me pause....anybody have experience with this bullet in 35 cal and elk?
I shot a bull with a 225 grn TSX.To my surprise I recovered the bullet. He was quartering away. It went through a rib, his lungs, the far shoulder and I found it just under the skin. One pedal broke off. It weighed 222.5 grins.
