Has anyone used the Barnes solids in caliber 6.5mm ? I'm looking for people's impressions of the 110 grain solid and the 120 grain tipped solid. Accuracy? Stopping power? wind cutting ability? Opinions on the use of all copper solids verses the standard copper jacketed lead projectiles?

Anyone loaded any of these for there 50 yet.Got a couple boxes to try out.Nice looking turned solid.

I have a box of the 26 grain HP's by Barnes. Hodgdon lists data for 32, 35, 40 and 50 grain bullets, but not the 26's. I back calculated a load range for BLC-2 and H335 for a linear regression to 26 grains, added a little to the min, and worked up to a little past the max (1 grain) for what I...

Working up a load for my 7mm SAUM. Elk and whitetail will be hunted with this. Trying to decide on bullet for the elk. Barnes tripple shock, berger (i dont know much about this one), and accubond. Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi everyone, I'm looking at trying 225grn TTSX from Barnes as a hunting load. My local dealer advised me to load the projectiles at least 50 Thou off the lands. While this gets the length of the cartridge down to a length that will fit in the magazine, I'm concerned that a jump that...

I have a Rem 700 with a 26 inch barrell and 1 in 14 twist. I tested the 53 gr TSX and was getting like a 4 inch grouping. The barnes manual says that you need a 1 in 12 to shoot both the 53 and 45 gr tsx. I really wanted to get these bullets to work becuase of the great results I have hunting...

I was wondering if anyone has the Barnes Loading Manual and could tell me the different recommended loads for the .224 55gr TSX bullet using Hogdon Varget powder? The different loads and velocity please. Thanks.

For those of you that have a 223 and have shot the TSX, which bullet would be recommended for an 8 twist? 53 grain or 62 grain? Powder recommendation also welcome. I was planning to try these through my 223AI for small deer and piggies.
