Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles 303 British Barnes TSX Load Data?

Have .311" Barnes TSX bullets I would like to try out in my No4 MK2 Enfield. I've been loading 150gr Sierra and 174 Hornady, but can't find any data for the TSX. Anybody got anything? Use starting loads for standard 150gr bullets?

TSX's result in very similar pressures to many standard bullets, especially Hornadys.

In my own No. 4 Mk 1 the 150 TSX didn't shoot well, but SMLE's vary considerably in bore dimensions. In a Ruger No. 1A it worked very well 50.0 grains of Ramshot Big Game resulted in groups just under an inch at right around 2700 fps.

Mule Deer, I was hoping you'd post. You lead me right on the 9.3x62 so I have no doubts with your info! Been shooting mainly Hornady so its good to know pressures are similar.

Bought this Irish contract rifle (serial checks out) still in paper & cosmo and I'm the first to fire it out of factory so every new recipe tried is an adventure!
