Default RE: The Amazing 85 gr. Sierra HPBT

If you hit big bones, you will want the Partition or the TSX. If you are hunting out of tree stand and have the opportunity to wait for a good angle, however, the lungs are a pretty good size target and the 85 Sierra will usually put them on the ground quickly. Partitions and TSX bullets, in the .243/6MM, don't generally kill very quickly on broadside rib shots. Fairly small wound channel. Great for shoulders, though, and can even penetrate a deer end-for-end if necessary.
