So, am I to understand that 225 TTSX's from my wife's .338WM or my 250 TTSX from my .375 AI are too large for antelope?

I'm still shooting my old 24" GAP with 175 Berger VLDs at 3100. Bought some 166g Hammers and Staball this year but then sat there looking at them on my bench knowing I don't really need them. I think it's at 1800fps around 750yd but App Bal put out their update and I don't feel like figuring it the new format.

Absolutely, a quality mono (Barnes or Hammers)…..provided that your shots are kept within the needed expansion velocity.
We (wife and I) use one bullet, one zero, one load for all of our big game. Though my maximum shots will never exceed 600 yards. I still have adequate velocity for much longer shots…..600 is my personal limit! memtb

I certainly hope that wbygunner has it figured out by now. If not …..my response.

Looks like 165 to 180 gr bullets are the historical favorites in short action back to 2010, in this thread. Color me shocked 
In reality, favorites back to 2003.
The Hammer bullets certainly seem to present a little different performance profile.
