[QUOTE="orch, post: 645874, member: 35688"] Hmmm.... Well each rifle is different I suppose... I'd expect a little more velocity outta that lighter bullet compaired to a 300gr bullet... I Guess the Barnes bullet being solid copper means it is going to have to be longer compaired to a lead core of the same weight giving it more bearing surface could be causing more friction and therefor causing u to reach peak pressure sooner.... How is accuracy? Is there much copper fouling? I know the original Barnes bullets were a little more prone to cause copper fouling... That could be causing the problem if there was a whole pile of copper constricting the bore... Orch [/QUOTE]
