barnes boattail bullet
« on: October 12, 2004, 03:48:58 PM »
Has anybody used the new barnes spitfire boattail bullets in the 245 gr. and the285gr.

 If you have I would like to hear about your experience with these bullets and what charges you are using especially if you used tt7.
 

  thanks.

I've only shot some to see how well they shoot. With 2 777 pellets and a 245 gr, I got an inch at 50yds out of my Omega. From where I hit at 50, I would not have even hit paper at a hundred. I also would have used loose powder but I have a box the wife was going to use. Unfortunately she changed her mind. Still got under a half box to burn up.
