Thread: 110 vs 130gr TTSX

if you go back...NZHunter were running them in thier very short bush rifles 6-7-8 years ago.... there is tales of woe starting to come out re quality issues with monos as of late,the consistantcy seems to be slipping.....I do know there has always been huge difference in preformance between different monos.
personally I would go 110 as from my experiences (50 grn in 223 and 110 in 270) the faster the better) BUT other than reduce recoil they wont do anything sub 200 that a 180grn round nose hornady wont do better.....except maybe bore holes through strainer posts.....

Cheers mate I reckon I will grab some 110s and have a play. Wonder how they will go with 2208

Use 2213sc on 110.

2213 in .308? 2208 will be useable, but 2206H or H335 would be better. Bullets kill by tearing apart vital tissue destroying pneumatics, hydraulics and electrics, running Targex 165 Hp in my .308. Short barrel and unable to run an Hp solid fast enough to do anything other than bore a caliber sized hole through an animal past 200yds. TTX and TTSX need speed and plenty of it, I don't like them under 2600fps or so impact.

Based on 2950 for the 130s and 3100 for the 110s basically 2600fps impact speed means they are good for less than 150yds. Really does make them.bush rounds aye

You should be up round 3100-3200fps with the 130 if using a suitable powder in a 20-22" barrel.....110s should be faster but may not extend the effective range.

The 180 would rip the post out of the ground instead. (-:
