It could be that I suck at searching for stuff using google, but I do know we have some outstanding ballisticians on the group, so I would like to put it to you guys:
A mate of mine has a 7mm rem mag that's currently loaded with 160gr accubonds. The formula works great as is, but I noticed penetration wasn't too impressive.
If you wanted to maximize penetration and the ability to deal with large bone, what would you choose to go with?
I'm thinking on the lines of barnes TTSX vs Swift A Frame vs Federal Trophy Bonded etc
Scenarios just for examples:
1) Non-ideal angles (quartering shots and texas heart shorts on fleeing, wounded game) on big game
2) Hitting large bones (Humerus, top of the radius or scapular) of big game
When I say big game, I mean eland/kudu and the US equivalent (moose/elk)
Interested to hear what you guys have to say!
