Ripp, I personnaly have not used them on game (yet) but have witnessed the performance on home videos and still pictures. A good friend has a few of them recovered from animals but the far majority just pass on through while leaving a good size wound channel. I tried the barnes solids in this Searcy and they shot just "O.K." for accuracy - not nearly as good as the Woodleighs. The barnes TSX's were literally all over the place which is too bad. The afore-mentioned good friend swears by the TSX's in his .500NE Searcy and just brought back a recovered TSX from his last buffalo just two weeks ago. Perfect performance, 98% weight retention, and traveled nearly the length of the bull on a quartering away shot and destroyed the off-side shoulder. He used nothing but woodleigh's until his recent experiences with the TSX's.

I am T-Minus 27 days until I leave to try the woodleigh solids first hand for the first time ever!
