[QUOTE="Jesse09, post: 1051661, member: 88547"] wnc-coyote, I started looking yesterday for Magpro, but didn't find it. waspocrew, mine is a modified Tikka, also; my first powder search was for RL-22, but it's not to be had. Since posting my original question, I've learned a lot more about Barnes' bullets and a lot of hunters have reported outstanding external ballistics and terminal performance on whitetail deer with both the TSX BT and the newer TTSX shooting 110 grain bullets rather than the 130 grain that I was used to shooting with the Nosler BT. It is argued that the all-copper bullet, by retaining so much of its original weight, equals or surpasses the killing potential of the heavier composite bullets. An additional bonus would be a flatter long range trajectory. Since I have a lifetime supply of IMR 4350 on hand AND the TTSX 110 grain bullet is reported to excel with this powder, I just cancelled my original bullet order and substituted the lighter bullet. We'll see. Jesse [/QUOTE]
