Default Barnes TSX or TTSX for deer?

I'll be using a .300 Win. Mag. this deer season....maybe for good if I fall in love with the caliber.

I just haven't had the time to break out all my reloading stuff this year, so I'll be shooting factory loads.

When checking out Barnes bullets website, they make some pretty impressive statements about their bullets.

I've always HEARD that they had issues expanding on thin skinned game like deer, but some of their videos shot them actually opening fully much faster than regular cup/core bullets.

Just wanted to get some informed opinions about these bullets.

I was thinking about Federal Premium 165gr. TSX's, although I always hear the .300 Winny tends to shoot it's best with 180gr.

Any input would be appreciated...
