[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 239453, member: 3373"] Many years ago I used the Barnes all copper bullet for an elk hunting trip. It was basically a Brass hollow-point in 130gr. Similar to you I thought on deer they expanded too slow and didn't drop on the spot. That is the reason I went to 110gr. even though 130 in the .270 was the Holy Grail since Jack O'Connor wrote an article about the .270 way back when. In my case where there was virtually no loss of mass from the 110 gr. bullet. I'm guessing I had more retained weight, or at least about as much, as I would have with the Nosler Ballistic or Accubond bullets I used for many years in 130gr. Wish I could still get 3 or 4 doe tags to do more practical experimenting instead of 1 tag every few years. Will still use the TTSX 130gr the next time I go elk hunting. [/QUOTE]
