Barnes must be up to something now that Sierra took over ??????

Checked with our guy who overseas marketing and he's given me permission to talk about it since their is load data on our website for the 300 PRC. It's our new 208 gr LRX. This bullet was designed months before Sierra took over. I've been shooting it in my newly built LW 300 WM at 3000 fps (sub 10 SD) with Rel 26 in Peterson "Long" brass. 5-shot groups have been running in the .5" to .6" range. Please ignore the black tip. They will come with the standard blue tip which Barnes Bullets is known for. A 10 twist barrel should not work. It was tried in one our guys personal 300 RUM and just would not group well; even at 4500'+ elev. 9 is on the edge. An 8 twist is much better. My 3.631" COAL is running about .135" off the lands of the carbon wrapped Bartlein barrel's lands. These bullets should easily expand down to around 1700 fps impact velocity.
