120 BT and 45 gr Varget at 3090 FPS. Target is at 200 yards with my 14-year daughter (at the time) shooting. This is about 8 shots through her Marlin XS-7 7mm-08.

Outstanding Fotis. That's the exact load my rifle likes best too. Looks like the young lady hunter is ready!
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Killed my biggest to date last season with a new Savage 16 LWH in 7-08 using 120 Ballistic tips and 44 grains RL15. Real nice tall and 19” wide 8 point with decent mass. Approximately 80yards broadside. Had exit wound but no blood trail. Didn’t need it. He loped about 40 yards, hacked up what was left of lung(s), and keeled over

120 gr ttsx with 51g of big game is running just under 3200 fps in my 24” rem 700. I have killed quite a few deer with this and the 120 gr nosler bt, and prefer the ttsx over 3k fps and the nosler under. I did have one of the noslers come apart on a doe at 70 yards at 3100fps mv. It hit the near shoulder as she was 1/4ing to me, and I found 3pieces of bullet under the far hide. She only went a couple of feet before sliding down the mountain in the snow, so I won’t call it a failure but I know I will get an exit withat that same shot with a ttsx at that speed.

I've only punched paper with 120NBT over max load of Ramshot Big Game. .5 to .7 MOA. Would not hesitate to use it on game.
