    Just found this channel, this is the exact type of info I’m looking for. I’m looking for a different monolithic 120gr bullet for 6.5, I’ll look through some previous videos see if it’s there. Keep doing this stuff guys!

    Great video guys! I use 120gr. Barnes TTSX in my 6.5 Creedmoor, works amazing on whitetail deer. In the last two years I took 4 deer with it. Two head shoot on does, a 300yr. broad side shoot & a 10yr. shoot in the neck on a buck all dropped in their tracks!!! I love all cooper bullets & Savage rifles!!!

    Great video, it would be very useful to see tests on Hornady CX and ECX. Especially more unusual sizes such as 110g 308.

    We actually have a presentation on Hornady's CX (.308) in 110 grain, you can find it in our expansion playlist!

    Awesome work. There is one cartridge that is glaringly absent, however. A short barreled, 308 Winchester load. We desperately need low velocity, 30 cal data points. A 308 cartridge, with an 1800 fps impact velocity would be hugely appreciated by me! Take care guys, I love your work!

    They are literally testing these bullets against one of the hardest mediums you can use: water. These results are skewed in the fact that what you see is an absolute best case (or worst case because it met too much resistance) scenario for bullet expansion.

    Like your videos. But now it would be nice that you test 168gr e-tip in 300win mag or simmilar. Untill now you used all moderate loads/speeds. Bow its time to use something in 3200fps range 💪

    If you're looking for high velocity testing with this bullet I would consider watching our video on running it in 270 WSM, in that chambering we had 3,371 FPS at the muzzle. Thanks for your support!
