    I use the 120 BTs in my .260 and Swede. I have found they penetrate well and often exit at close to medium ranges unless you hit major bones, (ranges up to 200m). Observations based on fallow deer that are my main game animal.
    Both of these deer were the same shot, behind the leg, through the heart at 80 meters. Bullet exited the second animal. In the fog I didn’t see the second one after waiting for some others to move off!
