Hello Fellas, I lot of you were asking about the Barnes 100gr. TTSX in the 6.5mm PCC...While Paul will be testing this bullet, he has yet to do so.
However, a lot of you guys already know that it has been a solid medium to large game bullet in other calibers...According to Barnes Engineers the
the 6.5mm 100gr. Barnes TTSX will reliably expand down to 1,800 fps. and my still expand well down to 1,550fps.
So I will give you guys all the available specs. of the Barnes 6.5mm 100gr. TTSX bullet, as well as the Ballistic Computer Modeling w/ various barrel
lengths in 6.5mm PCC...
Bullet Type/#: TTSX/26468
Bullet Length: 1.157" (Listed as 1.190", which is not correct)
Bullet Weight : 100 grs.
Bullet B/C: .360
Sec. Dens. : .205
Bullet Material: 100% Copper w/ Polymer Tip
Rounds per Box: 50
Price per Box: Approx. $35
Ok, w/ the 22" 6.5 PCC Bbl. it looks like this:
Velocity (FPS): 2,708 Energy (Ft.Lbs.): 1,630
All near Max. Pressure of 55,000 PSI. Using H322 Powder.
18" 6.5 PCC Bbl. :
Vel: 2,610 fps. Energy: 1,515 ft./lbs.
16" 6.5 PCC Bbl. :
Vel: 2,550 fps. Energy: 1,445 ft./lbs.
The best news being that the actual field results are giving us better velocity that what the Ballistic Computer is giving us thus far w/ most loads...
