[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2899395, member: 75451"] I use Barnes….used 270 TSX’s for years, but their BC was equal that of a brick! Barnes came out with the 250 TTSX but, I don’t like light bullets…..so I held off using them for a long time! I called, and sent emails to Barnes begging for a heavier, high BC bullet…..it seemed as though it would never happen! So….under duress, I bought a bunch of 250 TTSX’s and developed a good load with them! They have performed good on game…..no complaints! Then….. they bring out the 270 LRX 🤬🤬🤬🤬, after I have a good load and a bunch of the 250’s. I finally broke down and had my wife get me 200 rounds of LRX’s for my birthday and Christmas! I used-up about 15 or 18 rounds a few weeks back developing a load with them! Pretty pleased…..topped-out right at 3100 fps mv. The photo shows 2, 3 shot groups fired, 2 days apart, and I grain difference in powder charges! The group circled in red is about 1/2” center to center….and the load I’ll use! So, to finally answer your question…..270 grain LRX’s. I guess that I’ll shoot Prairie Dogs and Coyotes with the remaining 250’s! 😉 memtb [ATTACH type="full"]492271[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
