Yeah they make a good 120 in 6.5 but were still waiting for the 100gr. The 6mms have a light weight, Why cant we?
If the 100 went out the pipe like a 100npt I'd buy more than 1 box!

100 gr TSX out of a 25-06, muzzle velocity was 3200 fps, out of an older Ruger M77. I'm thinking I could at least dupe that load, maybe exceed it, in my .260 if they'd make the bullet!

A bit overkill, I know, but I was fortunate to witness what a 200-grain TSX from a 300 Win. Mag. will do to a couple of sitka blacktail bucks. Little entrance wound, huge exit would with enough blood spray to paint the landscape.
Also, what the hell is up with the Nosler Ballistic Tips? Seen a 180-grain bullet fired from another 300 Win. Mag. take down a buck. Bullet seemed to explode on impact (nasty entrance wound) and there was no exit.

Nobody ever said they don't work great most of the time, it's the few times they fail to expand that concerns me. There's too many good bullets out that work 100% of the time to risk using bullets that work 98% of the time. Those pictures could have been of any deer that hits our skinning rack at my camp, shot with partitions, accubonds, ballistic tips or any number of other bullets. Deer aren't hard to punch a double hole through with any bullet. It's gonna take more that those pictures to convince me that X style bullets are 100% reliable.

Nice, I shot a doe at 130 yards with 140grain Federal Vital-shock Accubond on 270WSM last week and it did more damage than the pictures you are showing. I was going to get a box of Federal TSX but they were out of stock so I got a box of the new Winchester XP3 Elite, I can wait to see the results from these babies.
