I just checked Barnes load data for the '06. They have as their max. 130 gr. accuracy load, 62 gr. Big Game at 3,232 fps.

I'd load those bullets with .05" jump and go from there. IMO, Barnes like to jump. They often work well jumped more than one would expect.

Unless one is shooting some really big critters, the 130 Barnes is my pick. And if those critters are that big, I'd probably be shooting 250's or 270's out of my .375 H&H.
