[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1448018, member: 10755"] My only experience with Barnes TSX bullets is unfortunately not a happy one. Have not used TTSX either. A buddy and I worked in a gunshop when the TSX came out, we both had the same cal rifles, me/he a 25-06, me a 300WM he a 30-06. We ordered some 115gr .257 TSX and 150gr .308 TSX bullets. Due to our staff discount, they were quite cheap as we ordered in bulk, a packet of each, 500 bullets. Both of his rifles loved those bullets, it’s all he uses now, neither of my rifles liked them at all and the 115gr TSX’s were leaving oblong holes at 100mtrs. We both have the same twist 25-06 rifles, so why the TSX was not stable in my rifle I still do not know. I gave the rest of my bullets, 10 boxes less what I loaded for testing, to him and never looked twice at them again. That’s my experience, yours may differ and print tiny little bug holes. Cheers. :confused: [/QUOTE]
