[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1564006, member: 63925"] Yep on Barnes XPB 140 .357 bullet. Shot well, best accuracy at 100 yds for me was at velocity of 2300 but did not get the accuracy at 200 yds that I wanted probably from my twist. The .358 160 gr Cutting Edge shot extremely well even at 200 yds so if I wanted to drop down in weight I think I would "bite the bullet" and shell out the $$ for them. They were great to work with on load development, seating depth etc as well. What you have to be careful about is driving a light weight "pistol" bullet at high velocity at deer. Results are not what you will want. I preferred heavier 180's, mono style like the Cutting Edge, custom like Fury or Hawke that designed their bullets for the Max level velocity. I am dealing with serious post shoulder surgery so when I get a chance (when my wife isn't looking) I will grab my load book from basement and list the bullets/velocity/accuracy that I have tried. Typing one handed is fun too...;) [/QUOTE]
