[QUOTE="Bret GRAVELINE Graveline, post: 2859573, member: 108926"] I've been shooting Barnes X bullets since they became available, I was a member of the Advisory staff so I had access to the new bullets as they came of the line, if I was shooting a caliber I often was shooting a new bullet before it was available to the public, the original X bullet sometimes was a little difficult in some rifles, however once to triple shock was available the few problem guns were no longer a problem, I currently shoot 7 different calibers in 8 different chamberings shooting 9 different bullet weights in 14 rifles, 22, 243, 257, 264, 277, 338, and 416, only one rifle allows me to seat touching the lands a 2506, all others I seat the bullets to feed properly out of the magazine box, they all have provided under MOA accuracy with a few under 1/2 inch, all my game rifles are light weight rifles with the heaviest at 8 1/4 pounds field ready, the lightest tips the scales at 6 lbs even, I do own a couple of rifles that just does not shoot Barnes well, but so far it appears most of these rifles do not like mono bullets. One however a 6mm Ackley does seem to like the 90 gr Nosler. [/QUOTE]
