Have any of you Hornet shooters tried the new Barnes 45 grain TSX yet?

Why would you want to use that great penetrateing bullet in the Hornet.All triple shocks that I shot were for big game and they were excellent.The Hornet is  slow for that bullet.
Just my 2 cents.

Big HOGS!  Back in October or so, I had some e-mail back and forth with Ty Herring at Barnes.  I got the impression the 45 grain TSX was developed with the Hornet in mind.

Might work well on Eastern whitetails too!

I"m going to try some for pigs at night. I like the low noise factor and a penetrating bullet.

Did anyone ever try these? I was wondering how they would work on a coyote at close range.

Tried it no, but knowing a .22mag will smack a coyote down at close range, a tsx out of a .22 hornet would be plenty for a cotoye.
