[QUOTE="rotorhead, post: 125930, member: 5078"] I have been reloading for a long time and a buddy asked me almost the same question. He said I see alot of bullets here in your stock pile and they are all Nosler and Sierra, Where's the Barnes? as he pulled a box from his pocket to give me for his 25wssm. Keep in mind I had 2 very accurate loads for his gun 1 was a ball.tip 100grn Nosler and the other was a 100grn Sierra match both shoot to 1/2-3/4 center to center 5 rounds. I may be wrong but to me this is an excellent group. He procieded to ask the question again so I did not answer and took his box of pills. The short version 1 1/4 is the absolute best I could get I do not know what I did wrong or what after so many round I just couldn't find what I was looking for, I tried everything I could and the best was AA2700 but this still is NOT good. He asked what happened you have always been able to get good loads for all my guns (6 to be exact) I then answered his question and for 1/2 the money you 3 times the accuracy. I might add the bergers are great bullets as well. I think the main problem with the barnes is they do not have much of a window It seamed as a .1 grain one way or the other blah I don't know.
