[QUOTE="Jared2700, post: 1755125, member: 102752"] I've never had any problems with getting a good tight group with barnes bullets. And they have a reputation of being extremely accurate. Maybe you should have tried different powders. Some people are not willing to change anything thing though. So I guess you can't help that. Maybe you're rifle just didn't like them, heck I don't know. But I have yet to have a gun that didn't shoot good groups with these bullets. They have shot as good or better in my guns. I've been shooting them for the past 30 years. And yes I use other manufacturers bullets too. So it's not just that's all I've ever shot. I really like Sierra, Nosler, Hornaday, Remington, Speer, and Barnes. Each of them have a purpose when it comes to shooting some for cheap, and others for things I just want to blow up like rockchucks ect. And some for when I am serious about making a good clean kill on larger animals like elk, muley's, hogs, and on bear. I personally think they all make good bullets depending upon what you are trying to accomplish. Don't bad mouth bullets you were the loader of, it was all up to you at that point. Just is dependent on what your bullet selection is, and the target you are looking to shoot. That is all I have to say about that. And yes I've killed animals at ranges over 1000 yards.☠️ [/QUOTE]
