I 've still got a box or two of the old Barnes " Original" 250 grain RN, 30 caliber bullets..

I might have seen some factory made ammo with them, but at the time didn't have an interest so never picked up any..

My world always worked just fine with 220 grain RN factory ammo from Federal... they used Sierra's 220 I believe.

When I started handloading, I was using Hornady instead tho...

Don't think I ever loaded or shot the Barnes 250 grainers that I have.
