Barnes Bullets Accuracy

[bearhunter]

You don't mention which twist rate your barrel has.

If you have a 1-12 twist rate, it may be too slow for the length/weight bullets you've chosen.

308 has a 1-11" twist. Tried 130gr TTSX
7mm-08 had a 1-9" twist. Tried 120gr TTXX
300 Win has a 1-10" twist. Tried 175gr LRX

The 160 TTSX is the most accurate bullet I've tried in the 8x57.

Works good enough on Elk, not a fan of it on Deer.

Good to know, was thinking about trying mine for deer. But I'll just keep using my 170 interlocks.
