How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 8" vital zone, ±4" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 500 yards.

Product Overview
Weatherby Select Plus TTSX is a solid copper .300 Weatherby Magnum load made for general hunting. The TTSX is Barnes' copper hollow point, a polymer nose plug in the cavity and no lead anywhere in it. At 180 grains it leaves the muzzle at 3,232 fps with 4,175 ft-lbs and a G1 BC of .484.
Zeroed at 200 yards it drops 5.5 inches at 300 and 16.0 inches at 400, arriving with 2,417 ft-lbs. From a 100-yard zero the drop at 400 is 20.6 inches.
If you're cross-shopping, Weatherby's Select 180-grain InterLock is the lead-core soft point at the same weight, 8 fps faster at the muzzle on a G1 BC of .425. Nosler's Trophy Grade 180-grain AccuBond carries the higher G1 BC of .507 and still arrives at 400 yards with 31 ft-lbs less.
- No lead core at all, so it is legal where lead-free ammunition is required
- Arrives at 400 yards with more energy than either load compared
- Within 20 ft-lbs of Weatherby's Select InterLock at the muzzle
- A lower G1 BC than Nosler's Trophy Grade AccuBond, .484 against .507
- Recoil sits within a percent of Weatherby's Select InterLock, so moving to copper changes nothing at the shoulder
