If frontal area is important to you, you should likely take a look at the GMX. The six petal design provides more frontal area than a four petal design like the TSX or TTSX. Actually I'd say the TSX and TTSX really aren't that great in the frontal area depatrtment when compared to bonded bullets or even the Partition. The voids between the petals really reduce the true frontal area. If you look on the bullets you recovered it's pretty apparent.
