Good day everyone
Came into some .30 cal. Barnes XLC bullets, 180 gr. What I don't have is the load data. As you know, Barnes discontinued the XLC product quite some time ago, and with it the load data.
Would anyone have specific data for the .308 Win. using the 180 gr. XLC data? If so, could you pass it on please and thanks. Email, PM or whatever you feel comfortable with.

Thanks all

Blue meanies! You might want to stalk close with a 180gr XLC from a 308, won't expand much

Used these when they first appeared in a 30'06. More fortunate than most I guess as they shot extremely well from a Parker Hale. Took several moose from 75m to far side of 225m. All DRT and through & through except for a chest on shot at about 100m. Bullet recovered in right rear quarter just under skin with entrance left side frontal chest. Almost 5 feet penetration.
Works for me.
