[QUOTE="RegionRat, post: 2618746, member: 57231"] I was forced to lean to use the Barnes TTSX when The Condor Zone covered some of the best wild pig zones. Then, when CA went state wide with no-lead rules, there were lots of club mates who wanted to develop Barnes loads. In general, I would say the trend I have found that surprised me the most was that these bullets liked to be seated deeper than I anticipated. Allow yourself some time to do your seating depth testing and don't be shy about seating them deep if that is where they group. Copper bullets are generally longer compared to equivalent weight regular bullets, so pay attention to twist rates and bullet lengths. I also found that a thorough cleaning between regular bullets and these helps settle these down sooner. Same if you want to go back to other bullets. As always, shot placement is what matters with any bullet, including these. [/QUOTE]
