Interesting Article on Hunting with 6.5 Grendel and Barnes 115gr VOR-TX

[Stinky Coyote]

I'm confused.. I can't find the TTSX in that weight. I can find the TAC-TX in that weight though.... but then they offer loaded ammo with a bullet that's not a component

I shot some of the tac-tx recently... hitting steel at 689... seeing the extreme angle of impact with the bullet hitting the plate is always cool.

holy crap those are cool pics! and encouraging amount of expansion even though steel, those impact velocities couldn't have been very high? the gel testing done here has been less than impressive for expansion stuff

as for that article, can you imagine...all that data they left in the hogs, not a single one of them broke out a knife to show us a bullet...that article absolutely infuriates me, what a bunch of total pussies and who in the sane rational real redneck world would write such an article and not have done some knife work to show exactly what they blabbered about....'yay, we did a cull, had some fun, talked about a bullet but too wussy to show you anything of substance about it'

I was so disgusted and disappointed after reading that the first time. These guys are not real gear junkies or ballistics nerds at all. Fanboys at best.

lmao, while I'm ranting about that obscene let down...go look at the pics, the guy standing there almost as far away from the hog as possible, gloves on, trying to keep his clothes as pristine as possible for the pub later perhaps? I don't get it. I'd have looked like the villain from SAW on that shoot, I likely wouldn't have had any time to shoot any myself as I'd have been too busy knifing and collecting bullets, distances(for impact velocities) etc. trying to keep up to the pretty boys who just went pewpew for the sake of pewpew lol, swhat shmat
