I shoot 80gr GMX in my .243 and the 130’s in my .270 great results furthest shot was 350ish yards with the little.243. Passed through a rib on either side of the cow elk lost less than a grain of weight. I’ve only recovered three of them from that gun and none from the .270. I’ve stockpiled lots of them for shorter range bush hunting I usually do why change what works. Also had similar success with the TTSX’s I just prefer the Hornady’s six petal mushroom compared to the four Barnes produced.
I’m now looking at the ELDX or maybe the acubond in my .270 for longer ranges for deer hunting next fall.
