[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 922027, member: 77249"] Measuring the groves on 30. Cal bullets, Both 150 and 180 I get a grove diameter of .294 with full diameter of .308. When run through a 30 cal. Barrel with the metal moved by the rifling not going to be much groves left. Barnes had trouble of pressure with people using NON-BARNES loading data. Plus less drag for better muzzle speed. I seen some ammo which was bought in California and brought to a Maine Bear Camp where I hunted in September. It was Remington Ammo with BARNES BULLETS. I have heard an Unverified Rumor that REMINGTON has bought BARNES to allow them to compete for ammunition sales in California. Barnes , Hornady GMX and Nosler E-Tip are about the only Large U.S.A. Manufacture Bullets that will meet California Law requirements. Has anyone heard anything about a buy out of Barnes????? [/QUOTE]
