    I'm using 130gr ttsx in 308. Very effective killers but unlike some other comments I think they generate a LOT of bruising around the shoulder in red, fallow and sika. Despite hitting a lot of bone they just about always pass through which I think is a good thing.

    Hitting heavy leg bones will cause lots of bruising with any bullet, compared to frangible bullets like amax and sst they are awesome meat savers if a meat saving shot is taken.
