Myself as a 6.5 shooter I have been taking mature muley bucks forever with the Sierra 120gr. Also have tried the Barnes 100gr 6.5 TTSX with 100% success & complete pass thru. Took my elk this season with my 6.5 & the 121gr Hammer bullet with a complete pass thru of both front shoulders. DRT.. One of my hunting buddies uses a 308 & the Barnes 130gr on elk with absolutely no problem. It will kill!! He has also tried the Barnes 30cal 110gr mono on deer with complete pass thru. We have shot these 308 130gr /& 110 loads on my 500 yd range & their performance would amaze you as they did us. For those who have problems with the 130gr TTSX on deer try the 110gr version. So far they have always given complete pass thru on mature muley bucks.
THere are also the Lehigh fracturing mono's where the front ( about ) 1/3 tear off & of considerable damage.[img]https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1018298911?pid=686422[/img]
