    Well I personally think I'd be happy with sacrificing the barrel length even if it meant going to a 20" barrel. I don't think the deer could tell you the difference and those TMKs are frankly rather devastating. If you happen to find some 168gr A Max's I've found that the load for either the TMK or A max is exactly the same(load wise).Albeit work up again just incase it's a fluke in my rifle .

    Up close they go off like a grenade and I often find what's left of the projectile on the exiting side on the underside of the skin. Or bits of mushroomed projectile
