I’ve got a 94ae carbine and it won’t shoot 225 gr Barnes xpb worth a darn. They tumble. Barnes said they are made for revolvers, not rifles. Any other suggestions that might shoot better in my rifle?

Lehigh Defense 265gn .429 WFN.

Load moderate+ to heavy.


Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

The 200xpb may work better if the rifle has a slower twist. I've had the 225xpb shoot very poorly, but good results with the 200 in a 1-38 twist barrel.
