Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles .358 Winchester Barnes Tipped TSX 180 gr

Does anyone have any experience with this bullet in particular?

I do not, just tagging along. Interested in this myself, bought a box last year that I have sitting on my shelf in my reloading room.

I have not used that bullet, but the first thing I thought of when I read your post is COAL. Check mag constraints before buying them.

I use the 200 TSX in my Model 7 KS .350 mag and I know I could not go any longer.

TAC might be your best bet as far as case capacity goes.

I shot a 6 pt. buck at short range with a BLR .358 with the non tipped X bullet four years ago. The whack of the bullet impact was as impressive as the instant toppling over of that deer.
It's funny because I have shot several deer with the .350 Rem Mag and 200 gr. hornady's and have not been impressed. The bullet really does make a large difference in my experience.
I carried a 94 in .356 Win this year and had a chance at a nice buck but blew it, I will try again next year.

When I had a .358 win BLR I used the hornady interlock spire points with simply fantastic results. Killed numerous hogs and deer with it. Never tracked one. 3031 gave great accuracy. I got that load from Ken Waters Pet Loads book.
