Best Uses

Zero with it, then learn how little it drops at normal hunting ranges. The 150-grain TTSX is fast, and copper bullets hold their weight, so it penetrates better than its weight might suggest. It is a strong choice for whitetail, mule deer, pronghorn and hogs. Many hunters also like its lighter recoil. For elk, consider the 168 or 180-grain versions. Barnes VOR-TX 30-06 150 grain is a good lead-free deer load for hunters who shoot across open ground.
