Barnes bullets good or bad

I agree and was very disappointed at the preformance, they are really hyped up on the internet and way overpriced. We use either Sierras or Noslers with better preformance, accuracy, and way cheaper.

I think they suck $hit and wont use them nor do I recommend them.


Well said, I would have to take out a second loan to shoot those things, if I had a rifle that would only shoot those I would sell it.

Dont think it is luck. For me they have been probably the easiest bullet I have ever loaded. I see less copper fouling, more FPS, and absolutely flattened everything I have shot with them, out to 508 yards so far on deer.

My best load ever has been with the 130gr TSX out of my 270WSM, 75gr Magpro, WLRM, Norma brass. 3508FPS average over ten shots with 8FPS es.

Here is a 3 shot 100yard target.
