It's loaded with a 110 grain proprietary "PTS" polymer tip spitzer bullet which looks to be moving quite fast judging by the difference in POI between it and the Hornady 110 V-Max factory ammo (a little research shows it to be considerably faster than the Hornady). Since the bullet should compare well to the V-Max, I expect good results for any hunting that I'd doing with it.
At current powder and primer prices, I'd be hard pressed to reload existing brass with those Barnes bullets for any less than the S&B ammo costs. A more accurate comparison would be loading these bullets in new brass and that would would be pushing 50 cents a round more expensive to load with the TTSX.
