Ha! I was just discussing how overrated barnes' are with a guy at work today.
I've slowly become a fan of the .224" 62 grain TSX after a rocky start, but that's about it.


Not sure how to say it politely, but both of y’all are full of bovine dung (How’s that?)


I gotta agree with Greg. Barnes bullets unless driven at warp speed aren’t worth Dung and then they still aren’t that impressive. Much rather shoot a Hammer bullet for Monos AKA a copper Berger style bullet.


I was going to ask about them but didn’t wanna derail this too much. I recently grabbed some 181 Hammers for my 300 RUM. Seems like they break apart big time up front while still retaining a shank. Anybody used em. Seems like they’ve had great reports. The 181’s are sleek looking devils and at 3350 they will fly far as I need them too.
