My Brother In-law uses these with great results, and he really likes them.
I’m currently using Nosler Accubon handloads, also with great results.
However NY is probably going to force my hand on State lands (which I spend a lot of time on) soon, and possibly next season.
So I’m looking into Barnes TTSX.
Another reason I may be making the change is the meat loss due to the fragmentation of the bullet, and the possibility of lead ingestion from consuming the meat.
My self, I’m not too worried about that as much as I am for my Grandchildren who also consume the meat.
It has been shown that it takes very little to affect our little ones, and the damage could be permanent.
Ive read some studies, and seen the results of some tests that show there are a lot of microscopic particles that travel a long ways from the actual wound possibly contaminating the meat.
Im not on a soapbox or anything, and I’m not proposing that everyone should not use lead bullets. I’m just explaining my reasons for not using them.
