    What are they like at around 300?

    The .308 130ttsx is still passing through at 300 on shoulder shots. At 400, I’ve recovered several from under the offside skin. If you hit major bone with Barnes projectiles, they kill exceptionally well, as they retain their weight and power on through.
    Not great for lung shots or fleshy neck shots
