I’d especially like a comparison with the Barnes LRX line of bullets. They are more comparable in features. Really the biggest advantage for both is the “rounded” cannelure grooves. Hornady boasts of a revolutionary bullet but the Barnes LRX beat it to the market, I believe

Glad to see 7mm content; 7mag is a big game harvest machine; from small deer to big moose, it delivers all the terminal performance you need

Took my mule deer this year with Hornady Outfitter in 6.5 creedmoor. Rifle was a tikka with 24” barrel. Shot was at 150 yards. Bullet passed through but took out both lungs and top of the heart. Will be using the same setup for my spike elk coming up in December.

Just used the 190 CX in my 300 PRC on a big bull elk a few weeks ago and the results were DRAMATIC! Clean entrance and exit no bigger than a quarter but the effect on target was insane… long story short he didn’t take a single step

How far was the shot curious to see how they behave at longer ranges with lower velocity

I just picked up a box of 150 grain CX 7mm two days ago . Perfect timing of this video.

Great video you two, nice to see Guy so often! I haven't found a CX bullet on the retail shelves around here that fits into my calibers. Soon hopefully. Related content is that I started using 150 GMX in a 308 in 2019 pushed with CFE 223 at 2,919 fps mv. I haven't recovered a bullet from a Mule deer yet, but the deer collapse every time. I also started shooting TTSX and LRX in almost all my hunting rigs. The latest, a 140 TTSX from a 7mm-08, Ruger American compact, 2744 fps mv, took one shot at a cow elk from 498 yards, bullet impacted just forward of the shoulder at 1720 fps (according to the Hornady ballistic app) got 90-95% expansion and she dropped dead as that bullet crushed her spine/neck. Only TTSX bullet I've recovered from elk. 4th elk taken with the Barnes. Barnes told me that bullet needed 1,800fps for full expansion. I also like knowing there are no lead fragments in my meat! Cheers

Very nice. Congrats on the kills. Ya, the Barnes is a good bullet for sure. Our choices in unleaded/monolithic bullets are expanding. And yes, they certainly do work well on game.

I grew up in Maine hunting whitetail with a 7mm Rem Mag. Savage 116 all weather. Rifle is almost as old as I am and love it.

One of the things I really like to see is the spiral markings left behind in the first block showing the bullets rotation

First of all, I'm very thankful that you posted the OAL of the projectile here: that's something Hornady was remis to do for some reason. I can't find out published length anywhere for some reason. Secondly, I'm waiting for the 130gr 7mm CX to come out (which their load data suggests will be released at some point) as 150gr is a bit on the heavy side for my 7mm08.

I have a THIRD reason to use solid copper bullets for you. We shoot a lot of pigs around here. We don't eat them but the vultures do. Vultures are our friends most times and we don't want to give them lead poisoning.

Excellent. I shoot an old but accurate, Browning A-Bolt 7MM Rem Mag. Have not reloaded or used copper only bullets. Thanks Gavin!

I just picked up a box of Superformance CX in 270 Win. I have not shot it yet, but I will be using my 22" Franchi Momentum to hunt whitetails in Missouri. Thanks for the gel test, it gives me confidence in the terminal performance.

I love these gel tests, you guys do it right!

I agree. Load it down to 2000/1900 fps to verify max range performance. Thanks for always doing a great job.

it would be cool to see the 150 30 Cal bullet shot at a similar speed into gel. Also a video with all the 30 cal bullets being compared, all in the CX of course. Great video!

I would like to see them tested against the new Barnes LRX. I've been hunting, food animals, with Barnes since 1988-1990 ish, when the tsx became available. I often don't have much blood the first 20yds, but it's spraying out both sides after that. It's rare that they don't pass completely through. I have a lot of Hornady products and I'm sure these are going to be nearly the same.

The day just gets better. No joke peoples. I was looking through amounts of powers used; as to the speed generated. Noticed the faster burning types, seemed to use less mix, for the velocity. But just hearing the hint about powder tip and ultimate Wacko potentual with the slower powders, was illuminating. As applies to 270W and 375 H&H.

I plan to use the CX in 6mm in my new build. 6MM ARC on a Christensen Arms Ridgeline receiver, IBI Barrel 7.5 twist varmint profile, MDT HNT26 with a TriggerTech Trigger, Just waiting on all the parts and pieces to get here :)

You fellas doing a fine job every time. 25-06 CX test be 😎!

308 at 2000 and 1800 fps!!!! Absolute must have tests! Thank you😃

That No1 “S” model is so awesome I bought the same one today in 300 win mag.

My Tikka t3x lite compact loves the 139 in the superformace line. I've upgraded the rifle graeboe Phoenix2, mountain tac bottom metal and anarchy outdoors trigger spring. Placed around with different scopes, started with a Burris full field lV 2.5 x 10. Replaced that with a 3-15 *42 vortex razor hd lht. Rifle shot the same and held the same -0+ at the 200 yard range.

Great video. Good choice of calibre to test.

I use the 130 grain in my waypoint 2020 6.5 PRC with Leupold CDS scope. Awesome rig

It would be SUPER interesting to see the performance at the lower ranges of the bullets performance window - around the 2000fps mark you mention. I think this is were the current generation of lead-free bullets may lack a bit behind traditionel lead based bullets. Of course lead free bullets will perform perfectly at 100-200-300 yards when they are well above 2000fps.. But what happens when you load a CX 165gr in a 308win with V0 of around 2800 fps - then you almost cut the effective range, compared to the 7mm, in half, meaning that you would be way closer to it's recommended minimum velocity for reliable expansion.. So, short version; Definitely do the tests around the minimum velocity

Got to try Hammer bullets, I'm getting great results,

Thanks for making the effort to test.

Barnes perfected this. All my rifles shoot barnes better than any other I tested. Load lighter bullets than lead. They like to go fast for proper expansion. I loaded 80 gr TTSX for my 10 year Olds 243. He dropped a buck in its tracks. He never made a move. The bullet went in on top of the shoulder and came out behind the shoulder on the other side.

Just picked up a couple boxes to try in my newer Christiansen Arms Ridgeline 7mm. Shot Winchester Expedition 168gr LRs last year in it but was not super impressed with accuracy....not bad but not what I wanted. Have shot Barnes 160 TSX's out of my Remington 700 7mm with great success on Elk in the past so am not hesitant about shooting this bullet as long as accuracy is there. Having a hell of time finding other quality 7mm ammo to test at this time.

Shot a whitetail with hornady superformance 55gr. CX 5.56, 7mm-08 139gr CX, and outfitter 270win 130 gr.CX. Great bullets.

Looking to get some for my 6.5 300 weatherby magnum 130 grn been on back order but can't wait to reload some for Mule Deer in western Kansas

Good bullet. At the 9 minute mark, you were making a point about the difference between cup and core and solid bullets. I think you may have misspoke and indicated that cup and core were longer, etc., giving the impression that they were ones to reduce the charge with.

Thanks for sharing guys. Can't wait to give the CX a go out of my Xbolt. If I can get them???

Have shot the previous GMX in 30 cal in a k31 and a Cetme c/ c308. And it worked okay in the 1-10 trist barrel, but the k31 shot better with the nosler E-tip, it would be interesting to see how the new Hornady CX stacks up against the Nosler E-tip.

Loan 150gr cx 7mm in 7-08 or 7x57 you could Loan it to 2000fps for your next test

great video, hard to find good 7mm media. speaking of which id love to see you do modern loadings for 7x57, all of the data i can find is people loading for old Mauser rifles.

I would really love to see a video series of a showdown of several different mono bullets like the CX. Shoot them in a serious magnum like a 28 Nosler, 7 STW, 300 WBY, 30-378 WBY, 30 Nosler, 300 RUM. This will show their maximum potential. Compare the CX, Nosler E-tip, Hammer Bullets, GS Custom, Barnes TTSX or LRX or both, and Cutting Edge bullets to name a few. You could a video of each bullet and then a final showdown video at the end. It would be very interesting to see what bullets have the best velocities, accuracy, penetration, and wound channel. But one thing no one is doing that I think should be done is a piece of thick leather in front of the gel block and at the joint between the 2nd and 3rd gel block to simulate a hide on an animal as big as an Elk. Maybe even between the 1st and second block. You will have the shooting/hunting crowd watching and talking like crazy. Great job you guys do!!!

Check out the Target Suite channel. He sets his gel blocks on top of foam sponge to absorb the expansion wave to keep them from bouncing off the table. Genius.

Awesome….. can you guys do one simulating a 300-400 yards shot? I load mines in 280ai and will use that for my elk and mule deer hunt. I shoot no further than 350yard when hunting.

I wish you would compare the profile compared to others in the caliber since mono mental bullet bc don’t compare to lead. Also, sectioning these bullets and comparing them to Barnes and Federal copper bullets, etc would be low cost and very good!

Also I would like to see some accuracy videos with it.

Would like to see a comparison between the CX and the Barnes LRX or TTSX in .224 77 grain at 200 yards.👍 Would this be a good or great load for Whitetail Deer?

Gavin… I have been shooting monoliths in “conventional” rifles for some time with great results. Shorten up ranges to keep the bullets expanding, sometimes reducing loads to keep pressures low. (Yeah, I hunt in California) So, shooting monoliths with some of the “new” high performance cartages that are designed for heavier bullets with higher barrel twist rates? (300PRC, 6.8 Westerner for instance) a Barns 190gr LRX has a very different profile than say a 190gr Berger LRX cup and core bullet. Internal ballistics have to be very different. Gilding surface vs higher barrel twist rate…. External ballistics too… high rate of spin on a lighter bullet with similar bullet profile as a cup and core bullet. Visit this puzzle, think about it. I would love to hear what you have to say about it. I’m betting bullet construction won’t gain us much, longer ranges won’t provide enough energy to open bullets. Might be super accurate. A 30 caliber hole through an animal is only misery for you and the animal you just shot.

Then they lied about it and tried to cover it up while trying to go after the employees who leaked the documents . That's not a company that stands for freedoms and the American way and I can never give them a dime in support again .

Hard to beat the Ole 7 mm rem mag..been my favorite for many years..

NYS is on the verge of requiring lead free bullets on all its public land. I use both a 30-06 and a 7x57 Mauser for my deer hunting. I will look to a 150 - 165 gr bullet for the 06 and a 140 gr bullet for the 7mm. Currently these bullets are not available on any of the web sites I usually purchase bullets from. Even though this proposed new law if passed will not go into effect until the 2023 season under the current supply chain issues my guess these bullets will be hard to find for a longe time to come. My current load for the 06 is 165 gr Hornady spire point with 54 grs of IMR 4350 Remington cases and WLR primer. This load shoots fine in my Remington 760 pump action rifle. I only hunt NYS public land. Thanks for this most informative video.

Monolithic copper bullets have a weight retention of about 95%+ so you don't need the same weight to achieve the same penetration as a lead bullet. Your rifle is unlikely to have enough riffling twist to stabalise these extra long copper bullet either. Pick a monolithic bullet that is about 80% the weight of your lead ones and you have the same or higher retained weight for penetration plus gain extra muzzle velocity.

It’s also giving you an interesting comparison between a 7/08 and 7mm Remington Magnum…. As to whether you need the magnum or not?? Obviously in how it applies to your region and game intended.. I’ve always leaned towards the old idea that magnums push heavier projectiles than standard calibers can usually handle. Like the 175 in a 7RM vs the 7/08 and 150… just rambling.. I love these talks… ❤

I've got a Weatherby meat eater edition 7mm rem mag. Pew pew pew!!!

Love me the ruger number 1. Awesome looking rifle. I have one as well as love it. I see you loaded 3.340” oacl. Is this where it seemed to be most accurate? Did you ever play around with H1000 in your testing at all?

Going Moose hunting near Alaska soon and this is the ammunition I chose for my 7 mag.

Just my luck. Ordered 200 Nosler E tips, 140 grain for my 7 rem mag. The Sherriff says I've exceeded my allotment for a couple months. (The E tips are around .5 moa with Vihtavuori N 165 and Cci 250 primers in Nosler cases, at 3.285 coal).

Have either of you looked or even entertained the Hammer Bullets? I'm a Berger target, varmint bullet freak and Hornady hunting bullets. I have some Barnes TTSX but haven't sent them through a barrel yet.

I have a mid 1980's Rem 700 ADL that I believe is a 1:9.25 twist? I see that the new Rem 700's are a 1:8 twist and suspect that this is due to the new attraction to longer, higher BC bullets? If so I wonder if the newer 700's have a deepeer throat to accomodate these longer bullets? It looked like the larger and longer CX in the 160 Gr. requires a 1:8 twist so older rifles or rifles with slower 1:9 or higher will have to stay at the 150 Grain or lower? I also have seen several things stating that these harder, copper bullets need to have a longer jump, possible set off 50 thou. as not to spike pressure if loaded to close to the lands? Interesting bullet but still have a lot of questions for safe loading of these bullets. I would like to see more detailed reloading info on these bullets including safety margins. OK, Love the channel! Thanks!

im surprised how few videos there are on these bullets on youtube.

As Usual, Very Interesting. Thank You Very Much.

This is basically a copy of a Barnes TTSX bullet which I have been using for years. Copper bullets are very good

I use 143 eldx in my 6.5cm I've been very happy with them however I love the idea of the all copper my biggest reason is you don't have to shoot as heavy of a bullet with all copper . I have few hunting spots I shoot out to as fare as 1200yards I of course limited my self with the 6 5 to 600 on deer 400 on bear . I built a 7mm remington magnum for the 400 to 1000 yards I loaded up 180gr Berger vld I hadn't got to the range yet to do my OCD test I just got my magneto speed so soon as this snow melts I'll be headed to the range . I like watching your shows there's always great info. And I did have a ?? What would you guys say would be a good bear load for the 7mag out to say 1000 yards . I had a bear this year at 1176yards with a 12mph cross wind and passed on tyne shot of course but this happens to me almost every season so I'm trying to be set up for the new season so I built this 7mag I wanted to do the 7prc but seems like the search for brass n powder just seemed better to go with the 7mag and its a great choice for that long range efficiency

Please test against Barnes and axe bullets as well as other copper bullets and compare ballistically as well

I have gone to Hornady Outfitter GMX with very good results on whitetails. Hornady has a great recipe for the 6.5Creedmoor with the 120gr GMX at all MV of 2925FPS. These bullets need velocity to perform as advertised. So why does Hornady load the 308 with 165gr GMX with a MV of only 2610? My low tech tests indicate these bullets need 2200FPS minimum for descent expansion. This makes the 308 Outfitter a 200 yard round. Still works for me but certainly not taking full advantage of 308 potential. 130s or 150s would be better than the 165s in 308. Of course handloading solves this issue.

All my experience is with Barnes bullets. Early 2000 when I switched to copper bullets because of lead, I’ve seen heart shots and lead ending up in hind quarters, there’s a article I can’t remember X-rayed game after. I’d love to try this cx, accuracy is going to be make or break. For some reason I can’t hornady bullets to group for me

I found the GMX superbly accurate in the Superformance line of ammunition as well as getting the exact speed marked on the boxes. I reloaded a batch and shot a very poor group. 2 inches...at 100 yds. I tried different combinations and was able to shrink the groups to about 1.25-1.50....Not great. The Superformance line of ammunition with the GMX gave me groups of 1/4 inch which I never had with off the shelf ammo in the past and very rarely with my own handloads and at the speed advertised on the box to boot and this was for groups of three shots chronographed with a standard deviation of no more than 4 feet per second !! This is for a 300 Win Mag and the 165 grains GMX. Long story short, the results were phenomenal out of the box, off the shelf...but not with my handloads.

16:50 It isn't "bouncing off" anything. It is just the elastic nature of the gel. The bullet is basically dragging/pshing it forward without penetrating it and then when it runs out of kinetic energy, the gel relaxes back to its un-stretched position. Great vid. I've used GMX bullets out of a .308 win for a few years ago with excellent results. Glad Hornady is keeping the franchise alive.

So how do these compare to either the Barnes TTSX or LRX?
