Default RE: 100gr Scirocco's in the Roy

Ok, fair enough.

If the TSX hadn't grouped in my rifle, my next choice was the 110gr Nosler Accubond, then the Hornady Interbond or Nosler Partition. Both are supposed to be excellent performers and should be tough enough to hold together reasonably well at ultra-high velocity. I would never use a Ballistic Tip in the Wby. They are far too frangiable at standard velocities for my taste, but drive them at over 3500 fps and I can't help but worry that they'd blow up like a varmint bullet on impact at close range, resulting in a vicious but shallow wound. I am just glad that the TTSX grouped well, as I really want to avoid lead cored bullets if I can given my experience with the Core-Lock bullet this year.
