[QUOTE="KEB0, post: 1163502, member: 91926"] Sir, I have had excellent results with Barnes, all copper "X" bullets in my .06 in Alaska for over 20 yrs. I used Partitions, but tried the Barnes to get more accuracy in my rifle. The 165 and 180 Barnes flat put big critters on the ground with authority, out to 300ish. I have never had to shoot a Moose or Brown bear more than one time, and I am definitely a fan of shooting things multiple times...The last Brown I shot at 30 yds didn't make it 40 yds and I hit him too far back. These bullets usually pass all the way through both sides, rarely have I recovered one. They are nicely accurate, and after I used them on game, there simply was no reason to use any other. I punch paper with match bullets...YMMV [/QUOTE]
