The softnose Woodleigh is certainly the standard and obviously works very well on broadside shots. It would be interesting to know how the new Barnes TSX would do as it would supposedly combines the "shock" of the softnose and that energy dump into the animal plus the "penetration" to make it lethal from various angles other than broadside.

This combo is interesting to me as it would swap some of the energy of penetration(full penetration just dumps residual energy into the object behind the animal)for momentum/hydrostatic tissue shock and ?cutting effect.The animals I have shoot with standard X bullets have impressed me with signifigant tissue/hemorhage effect but they are certainly not buffalo.

Time will tell.And if they just made a MRX in 470 with its tungsten rear---
