I really don’t know. I just know that I’ve shot groups on paper and to distance and have been great with a lot number somebody else said was no good. I did no development. Just same powder and depth I was running Dtacs at. I’ve been running them right at 2900 from a 7-1/2 twist proof barrel. I just put on a new barrel and will be starting a new lot of bullets so I hope everything keeps working for me

ok well,
out of 30 bullets I measured the large majority were 112.1some were 112 then, 4 at 112.2, 1 at 112.3 and 1 at 112.4
not a crazy variation

Called and talked to a gentleman at Barnes today. Gave all the details looking for suggestions. Said "hmm never heard of that bullet having an issue". Never asked for the lot number didn't seem to give it a thought when I told him others were having the same issue. Nice guy but obviously could not have cared one bit.
Never will I use their products again.

Has anyone that have been having issues shoot a newer lot and the problems went away? I had exploding bullets with the lot in question as soon as I started shooting it. The previous 1500 112 match burners were problem free. These are all on the same barrel/speed etc. and the only thing that changed was the lot number. I believe the newest lot is R000627.
I have some from lot 627-9. No issues.
