If they even exist?
We have SPS for Nosler seconds, which makes shooting a lot more affordable. I'd like to try TTSX bullets in my 7mm-08 but they're $35/50.
So does Barnes sell blems/overruns?

Obey lawful commands. Video interactions. Hold bad cops accountable. Problem solved.

So does Barnes sell blems/overruns? When I was TDY in the Salt Lake City area a few years ago, and headed down to Bryce Canyon for a weekend, I drove right past the Barnes plant. I emailed them before my return, thinking I'd stop on the way back up, and grab some "seconds". Their response? "Nope". They said Barnes does not deal in "seconds" or "blems".

P Stop whinging, I pay au $70.00 for the same packet of 50 here.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

I've got a 30/168 TSX without the TSX. 49 normal bullets and one without grooves in the box. You want to shoot it in your 7-08 and take pics, I will send it to you.

Being a monometal....my guess is Barnes scraps bad bullets and melts them back down. Not possible with a cup and core or bonded bullet

The seconds are in the same box as the firsts, and damn if I can tell the difference.....
You might find some GMX seconds

Less than a buck a pop??? I'd gladly spend the $35/50.
