Drop the weight ! Up the velocity! TTSX 100 grain from the 260 rem 3200 fps is the most effective kill pill i have ever used . Factory ammo is often slower than the box says in general in my experience . I have only had one stag run a significant distance ( 70 yards downhill) and the issue was placement , i miss read a channeling wind between two peaks !. 270 should wreck em with a lighter , faster TTSX, forget what the lead weight is for the cartridge
please do try different stuff light for caliber , driven fast! I have been killing big stags real well Barnes TTSX 100 grain 3200 fps
I’ve had no problems with 120gr copper on big stags up here in Perthshire. 100gr good but 120 better for me.
Great picture thanks
Using sako ttsx 110. 270, best coppers I've used so far but still not equal to the lead 130g, flatter shooting right enough.
You talk some crap!
Shot stags with them also , worked ok . Just had one ( the last of a group of three) that wandered about a good bit after a good run . Mainly being the third hit i suspect though . The 100 grain i have shot a lot with now Stags, hinds, Roe, CWD, muntjac , without a shaddow of doubt the best deer bullet i have shot in 20 years . I do drive them fast though 3200 fps i would need to check but i think i was shooting the 120 grain TTSX 2900 fps? Not a bad round at all , indeed i recently added some 120s to the ammo store as 100 grain are tough to get hold of ( though i must have 600 or more ) . I like the tiny little push back from the 100 grain at high speed , i get to visually spot every shot !
Cooper bullets are not what lead is, they have certainly advanced since I first used them 10 years ago but there's still room for improvement
Before this gets silly, there are plenty other threads where people can moan about the demise of lead, a gentle reminder that the original post was about the use of non-toxic and asking about peoples experience with different brands of copper. I can’t use lead on the majority on my permissions so it a done deal for me, and I‘m not sure I’d want to anyway.
I have at least 5 more years on you, used nothing but copper, works just fine!
I didn't realise it was a competition
I've 25 years of shooting deer, maybe I don't like change or maybe too used to lead but I'm not the only one finding fault with it, shooting further out (not mad distances) it doesn't perform that great either.
Exact the same can be said of lead , proven by the likes of the nosler Partition against a basic cup and core . For deer i really dont want to use lead on deer now
Lee apart from the obvious. I find no difference using my 6.5x55 with TTSX or LRX than when i used my .25-06 with lead and you know the numbers that felled
also mate I've been dealing with the same rubbish for 30+ years Steel doesn't kill Geese Duck I'd love to have videod the Geese i shot this morning with my 20ga 1oz Steel 2's 
.
Using what metrics? There are a number of scenarios where it is the best and preferred option.
