Good shooting. How do you like those Barnes bullets? I don't use them because of the copper in the barrel. But of course I haven't tried the Tripple Shocks.

I have used the TSX's in several calibers.  No more leading than any other bullet, to me.  Plus they seem to be more accurate then the Barns X's were reported.  Never shot the X bullets though.

jro45 -

The TSX's have been very accurate in every rifle I have tried them in - .257 Roberts, 7mm Rem Mag and .300 Win Mag.

What's your favorite powder with the TSX bullets?

i use reloader 15. 62.5 gns. in remington 700 cdl. conogarph a little over 2800 fps with no pressure signs. this is a hot load. and bullets are set out very far, enough to function good in rifle.
