Factory Barnes VortX which I believe is listed at 2950 at the muzzle, I didn’t chrono with my rifle. I was expecting a little less expansion as well.
I'm slowly changing my mind about certain TTSX bullets. I used to think they weren't worth the money. Now most bullets/ammo are expensive. Certainty, that one did an excellent job. I should sell a kidney and track down some 150 TTSX for my son's elk hunt if that's what they do at a quarter mile. Thanks for the details.

Well, it’s a data point of one. According to Barnes’s ballistic chart it should been moving along at a bit less than 2100 FPS compares to the generally recommended minimum of 1800. I was down to my last 7 Rounds. Gonna stock up with several boxes when I find any available.
