    Yes as above, I would call 300y about max for quick kills with the barnes at 308 velocitys, inside that tho brilliant.
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    Thanks VC will keep it under 300 if the rifle likes it. Is there any real difference between TTSX and TSX in performance?
