Interesting old thread.
I had a croc hunt as my number 1 game. So I took the most accurate load I had which was a 250 Barnes TTSX. It took the croc, sable, eland, black wildebeest, warthog and caracal. It is my favorite light bullet.
I have used the 235 Barnes TSX as well. It was suggested I use it on my lion, lioness hunt. I did, but I wasn't happy with the performance. Since I had to shoot through brush, I would have prefered a long 300 grain soft bullet.
The 235 was good on gemsbok, blue wildebeest, blesbuck, impala, and springbuck. But the 250 TTSX or a 300 grain would have worked just as well if not better IMO.
Next trip I will either use Swift A-frames or Federal TBBC which I found a good deal on Federal ammo with the TBBC. I’m still waiting to see how they all shoot in my Blaser.
