[QUOTE="Philward, post: 1710443, member: 92604"] He's either undercharging the case, not seating the bullets deep enough (or too deep?), or he has a rifle problem peculiar too Barnes bullets. I think the slightly reduced loads for the original x bullet went away with the TSX because they have reduced friction from less bearing surface and hence Barnes states you may need to increase powder charge 1-2 grains compared to lead core bullets to get same velocity or you can push them faster. It was the same in the past with their XLC blue coated ones, of which I still have some, compared to the standard x bullets. [/QUOTE]
