Me and the family have been using accubonds out of the 257 and 300 wby since I was little and they have been putting them down hard.

As said about it really does come down to shot placement.

Hope to be testing out the LRX on a few animals next month. Supposed to be softer and open at slower speeds than the TTSX while still retaining weight

Either bullet will do just fine, as will a half a dozen other bullets.   I'd pick the most accurate and go fill the freezer.

As much as I love my accubonds this is a very true statement accuracy kills
