Anyone have first-hand reloading experience or on game performance with this bullet in 358Win?
Anyone try TAC with it?

Nope, but the 200 gr TTSX and TAC work like a champ.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

Thanks, Ed.
Any issues with seating depth and powder compression with TAC?

Thanks, Ed.
Any issues with seating depth and powder compression with TAC? Not TAC or 180's but 48 grs of RL-10 will settle in real well under a 200 gr TTSX for a COL of 2.800" and a vel of 2700 fps with excellent accuracy in my Ruger Hawkeye 358W. It's a real kickass load in the little stubber.

No data available, that I can find anyway! Slainte'

I emailed Barnes and asked them. They sent me original XFB and told me use it. I can't paste it from phone bc it's a PDF. PM me your email and I'll forward it to you. Just please post it here for everyone once you get it.

But you know us young guys, always looking for something sleeker and faster!
