Yea I had read about the game kings a bit and also just ran across hornady precision hunter. Have you ever looked at those?
Question about the tsx...on the hog hammer rounds it's says "hog tuned Barnes". Are all the tsx the same or did they change it up on this round? Marketing crap or really tuned.
The stock is the sole reason I went with a rem 700. I like Magpuls polymer and just loved the look of this stock vs any of the other "precision" type stocks. Kinda heavy setup so I wouldn't stalk with it but in a box stand it should be fun.

I shot one deer with 165 game kings out of my 06. The bullet exited in about 4 pieces after hitting a rib. They shoot exceptionally well but they're too fragile for me. You can tell the core is soft because the tips deform very easily. The jacket is also thin like a match bullet. I only suggest them for deer when people have a very picky rifle that won't shoot anything else good enough. I'll take the 1/2" bigger groups the partitions give me in exchange for 100% exits. With something that has as much horsepower as the 06, I want to hit bones on purpose.
