Hey Stinky. I don't disagree, I read your posts and they are interesting. I have had my quarter bore for almost 20 years, and it has been my only hunting rifle. Instead of taking someones word for it I wanted to try a .30 caliber magnum for myself, mostly for bullet weight and frontal diameter. I do think the 300 wsm is a great cartridge! But for what I am doing, yes it is over kill. I grew up in the prairies and have since switched to still hunting the bush, that's the reason for the close quarter shots.

But the post was about Barnes, I assume you would consider the TTSX if you were launching your projectiles just a little quicker?
