A few makers I pulled out of hogs I had in my too box.

I've killed lots of game with Barnes TTSX in .25-06 and .300 WM.

Antelope, mule deer, whitetails, bears and caribou, all dead.

Haven't recovered one yet. First picture is a exit at 375. Second is exit at 486. 3rd is under the shoulder of the same deer in picture 4 at 572. I don't remember what deer the last picture was, but it was an exit that hit a rib might be the 4th picture deer.

Recovered .358 Barnes 200gr and 250gr Original X from elk. 3/4 inch expanded diameter for both. First picture is 250X, second picture 200X. Third pic shows side view with unfired bullets of each, and a 200 TTSX for length comparison. 35 Whelen AI, 2900 fps MV for 200X, 2575 fps MV for 250X. Both shots were hard quartering and went through 4' of elk diagonally. 200X quartering toward found under hide of the rear quarter, 250X quartering away found in neck meat. Been using the 200 TTSX for over a decade now, but none of the elk or deer have caught one yet to take a pic.
