Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting Barnes LRX 6.5 127gr

Took this bull with my Savage 260 Rem Using Barnes 120gr TSX at 3004 FPS. One shot with a complete pass thru . This bullet has been putting elk down for me every season . Started with the Barnes 6.5 120gr "X" when it first came out. Now the TSX. Has never failed me.

Some years back this young lady borrowed my wife's 6.5x308 wild cat ( now the 260 Rem ). One shot with the Barnes original 6.5 120gr X. Complete pass thru. So many hunters seem so surprised at how well this bullet works with the 260 Rem.
