[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 191012, member: 412"] 270 & 25-06 both variants of the 30-06, both long action. Admittedly, I haven't shot anything nor seen anyone use a 160 Barnes via 7mag/STW. However, I've use an awful lot of the 200/.308's via 300Win @ roughly the same speed you're going to get out of 160's via STW and IMO, they're going to have very similar performance on game being near the top end of heavy-for-caliber hunting bullets in their given bore diameter. After shooting a fair few of the 25-06/100TSX combo, and a WHOLE BUNCH of the 100TSX via 257Wby, I'd choose that bullet every time to minimize pelt damage over everything else. 100Gn TSX @ 3300 via 25-06 exit wound: [ATTACH=CONFIG]17841._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]17842._xfImport[/ATTACH] Both shots were +/- 200yds.
