We've killed all kinds of stuff with the 100 grain Barnes TTSX including 3 moose. I shot my cow elk this year with 1 shot at 512 yds with 100 grain Hornady Spire point, also several bear and deer with the Hornady.

I have used a few other bullets and weights, they all seem to kill out of the 257.  :tup:
