     OTHER DESCRIPTION  Slightly better group than the TSX, but not by much. Kicks significantly harder than a 450 grain round. Same impact point as Barnes Triple Shock with 80 grains of H4895. I could not get these to group as well, or have a coincident impact point with the 500 grain TSX using the same powder as the Triple Shock (80 grains H4895).
