[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1960610, member: 26077"] Good choice using the 130 grain. Whole advantage to the Barnes is lighter bullets penetrate well. The velcoity you gain, mine are doing 3150 FPS out of a 21" NULA using 4895, WW brass and CCI mag primers. The extra velocity is a big advantage. If I shoot heavier bullets I used Hornady BT Interlocks in 150 or 180. Softer bullet expands better at distance, though the 150s are still leaving at 2950 fps. The 130 TSX have killed bear, deer, moose and elk. Pass throughs on all animals, have never recovered a bullet, even on the Elk I shot at 550 yards. [/QUOTE]
