[QUOTE="glbhunter, post: 1541265, member: 100645"] Barnes bullets have shown higher pressure than a lead jacked bullet every time I have used them and you might have a tighter bore. It would be good to look at Barnes data book. I loaded some Barnes bullets one time in my 25-06 using low end of powder charges. It also blew out a primer. I pulled them all and started lower next time they did ok after that but didn’t have the accuracy I expected so I used different bullets. However, a few years later in my 220 swift I developed a load using reloaded 15 and Barnes 52 gr tsx flat base (was hoping for a bullet that holds together and it does) and will shoot a 1/4 inch group if I can do it. I have shot that load past 4000 and I settled for 3850 which is the most accurate. All guns and reloading components are different and each must be loaded to its own likening which I am sure you are aware. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
